Who would you vote for if you lived in Brighton Pavilion?

[Dover]

Labour/Nancy Platts for me.

Ypung Leo was in the "Bib" on Tuesday night. Dear oh dear!

Labour/Nancy Platts for me.

Nancy is a nice lady one of my Friends (Dan Wilson) writes speeches for her,however now is not the time for sentimental voting.This country needs change it's the national agenda that's important I cannot bring my self to vote for someone as good as I think she will be for Brighton Pav if it means it helps this woeful, awful, and incompetent Government, to stay in power.

Sorry HB&B, but I could never vote Tory. But I'd still buy you a pint.

I'll look forward to that.

So who in Pavilion will vote Green? The way I see it is..

Coldean: Labour

Charlotte Vere obviously doesn't think there are any Tory votes here - we've had no callers from the Conservatives and only one leaflet. Contrast that with the five or six leaflets and visits/calls from Labour and Green.

BTW, although I'm not going to vote for her, I think Nancy Platts is a pretty good candidate and should have been chosen for Kemp Town, where she might have stood a chance. Hope she gets another shot in five years' time.

For me, I'm voting Green for the first time in parliamentary elections. As a former member of teh Labour Party, I cannot vote for the incumberents because they haven't done a good enough job and its time for a change. I cannot bear for the Tories to take power and the LibDems aren't in with a shout in Brighton Pavillion.

So if I vote green its because I've been impressed with Lucas in Europe and her personal approach to expenses. One seat will not make much difference nationally but its likely Lucas will get in.

I'd vote for the zombie lady if I lived the wrong side of the Steine. Gutted that there's no-one worth voting for in the Kemptown constituency. As people have mentioned, the local Church of the Sub-Genius (Bob Dobbs) crowd did indeed stand in all three Brighton & Hove constituencies in the last two general elections, and I voted for them both times out. The reason they're not standing this time might be that they seem to have disappeared. Their de-facto UK HQ was a T-shirt printers (BDI - Bob Dobbs International - Screenprinting) that got demolished to make way for the new London Road Sainsburys, and they don't seem to have resurfaced anywhere else - their website/MySpace/etc are all long since defunct/not updated. So blame (and boycott) Sainsbury's, Bob Dobbs fans.

Meanwhile, for those sexist pigs who wanted a photo of the zombie lady, this is her...

Looks completely nuts and quite scary, but nice tits.

BDI Screenprinting were still going until last year.

Now they have gone kaput, but they were there in Providence Place after Sainsbury's opened.

I stand corrected. I wasn't sure if Providence Place was still there with all the new buildings about. The BDI website disappeared about two years ago (I was looking to get some T-shirts done there) and their Myspace was last logged into over three years ago, so they must have been on their last legs for a while

 

[Nottseagull]

Is that Sussex? What's the large building on the far left?

 

[Colossal Squid]

I feel a bit sad that I'm the other side of the Steine so have to cast my vote for Kemp Town ward candidates HOWEVER I feel confident that my fellow Brightonians on the other side will vote Dr Lucas of the Greens in. And I hope they do too.

As a traditionally left wing area I think it makes sense to have a Green candidate take control when the incumbent Labour party have abandoned their old skool left wing tendencies and rapidly lost popular support

 

[Don Quixote]

Nancy Platts is a lovely woman. She will make an excellent MP but I do not know if she will win this time.

 

[Hatterlovesbrighton]

This really depends on just how many Labour supporters realise that the game is up and vote green. Be interesting to see how Labour campaign over the next two weeks.

Also can the Tories mop up some of the UKIP vote by pointing to the fact that they might get the deeply pro-europe Green party instead of eurosceptic Conservatives.

How far on the other side of the Steine?

The boundaries have moved, and you may be in Pavilion.

 

[Nottseagull]

If I lived in Brighton Pavilion I wouldn't vote Lib Dem because of their proposed mansion tax.

 

[Man of Harveys]

Labour for me. I really, truly hate both the Greens and the Tories: useless, single-issue organisations (the environment and sheer naked greed respectively).

If that article on BBC website is to be believed the LibDems - whom I've warmed towards - might now be splitting the anti-Tory vote even more.

Nah I've got me polling card and literature from Kemp Town Labour and Green candidates. The Tories haven't even bothered as yet

 

[Perkino]

You can't vote for the Green party!

 

[The Large One]

You can't vote for the Green party!

Oh OK.

Um, why?
