Thanks for this link. I was wavering between two parties but have just found out that our lib-dem hopeful has been telling porkies on her election flyers. She claims it is a straight fight between lib-dems and labour when in fact the lib-dems came 3rd in the last election with 24% of the vote.
They never learn do they these politicians?

Mind made up again.....it came down to the defence policy.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

I am going to vote labour.
I detest Brown and think Blair should be burned at the stake in my cul-de-sac.
Don't even start me on Mandelson.

This is one of the reasons that both Tories and Labour, at least in my experience, tend to find common cause against LibDem campaigns - they often seem very dishonest. The skewed bar-charts are famous. As is the practice of getting quoted as saying something in the local press; then quoting it as from the newspaper. It is a consolation to me that we have a number of LibDem supporters (in fact at least one normally so fervent that they will have a poster) that have switched to us because of the personal attacks made in the LD campaign.0 -

No and I'd rather not say where I do live, but both Tories and Lib-Dems have claimed that it is a straight fight between them and Labour, and they couldn't both be right.0 -
Martin's weekly tips has a good section on resources for election info, which my link came from.

It's not too late to change your mind ws

I have pretended I had an option this whole campaign.
I hate everything they have done. My heart turns thinking about the mess this country is in.
I will vote labour and God help me if I get what I am asking for.
