    You should have put an 'undecided' option in that poll :D

    I most certainly will be voting though :D;):D

    Wow, more of that in depth analysis and detailed thought processes that you specialise in.

    Brilliant.

    As far as I remember we have a very limited optio here: the main three, UKIP and Greens. Lib Dem will get it I guess, despite having a seriously fingers in the pot representative, both as mp and local government. I will vote conservative to counter balance this, though I don't rate our Tory candidate they deserve a chance (other people do speak well of the candidate, its highly likely I'm coloured by tales of childhood, which often differ from the adult): the lib dem alternative that other people say they would vote for if they stood a chance in other areas I can assure you is not a vote for lack of corruption or vote for honour.

    I wish we had more choice.

    It is about time we changed the voting system in this country. It doesn't matter who I vote for, the current Tory MP will get in. So my vote doesn't count. The power is with people who live in the marginal seats, they will decide who gets into government next time.

    I will vote with a heavy heart.

    Like I said before.

    Did you ever suffer blunt force trauma or did you have to work at being such a complete knob??

    I suspect more so now you worked at it.

    Tory. Always have.

    Don't like Dave though, reminds me too much of Blair.

    Am I the only one who gets a whiff of the weasel about Mr "You can call me" Dave(id) Cameron. I just don't trust him. He seems to say different things according to what the polls say about an issue.

    I won't be voting. Not much point. I already know who will win.
