You will be wasting your vote.

My vote is wasted anyway, in my constituency you could put a drunk donkey up as a conservative, and it would still win.

Think I am wrong? Think again. He has almost single handedly stopped the world from entering a depression because of what he achieved at the G8 summit in March. In fact, it actually now feels like we are actually in a very mild recession. When he said he had ended boom to bust economics, it would appear he was actually right. Think about it, we all thought at the end of last year the economy had bust, 6 months later it is almost odds on house prices will be back to 2007 prices by Christmas. Pretty much all of us still have a job, we can almost borrow as much as we want and we are beginning to spend spend spend. Even the stock market is growing at one of the fastest rates of all time, which can only mean huge bonuses.

NEXT YEAR YOU MUST VOTE THIS ECONOMIC GENIUS BACK IN!

Now, I am being a touch sarcastic. However 3 months ago I would have been plain barking. However, when I hear and read what the media are saying and when I come to a site like this and read what the bulls, which are the majority now, are saying this is almost how it seems.

House123 has a screw loose. Discuss

Cameron is a knob - so I will vote Labour.

You have something in common with "Dave" then.

Honestly, how some people have the vote.

I agree with Dan - Cameron is a kn*b - I couldn't vote for him or his sidekick (as I've said on here many times). He tries to come across as an ordinary bloke - well an ordinary bloke he is not. And I may not want to see the country run by Old Etonians. But that is my decision not yours and it doesn't make me any less worthy of a vote.

I will use my vote in the way I want to, thanks. be it for Labour, LibDems, UkIP, BNP, the Greens or the Monster Raving Loony Party. It's my choice not yours.

And I have the vote through the hard work of other people, as does everyone else.

The idea of the vote though is to vote for who you think will run the country better.

Not vote for who's the least knobbiest. Of which Brown certainly doesnt win.

Cameron is too inexperienced to run this country.

The idea of the vote is actually that you can vote for whoever you like, for any reason. I might chose to vote tactically for example.

I don't agree - he will have the benefit of some experienced politicians around him. In my opinion, too much emphasis is put on experience - far better to have a clear view of what you want to do, and communicate it to the electorate.

I'm not saying I like "Dave" though.

Going by this statement Brown is the only one with enough experience and what has he done but leave the country nearly bankrupt
