[Politics] General Election 2024 - The Poll

I said Labour but in 2019, Labour got 10,355 in my constituency whereas the LDs got 10,320 votes. So at this stage I just don't know.

Wait for the manifestos and local plans.

The inevitability is that nationally, the PM will only be one of 2 people.

Local issues may make one of Labour and LDs better for you than the other?

Joe Biden, US Democratic Party

Spoiled paper for me

 

[Weststander]

Greens …. Brighton Pav, why vote for anyone else? It’s a special thing having a different voice in the Commons.

Clark Kent just told me we are set for stability, financial growth, shorter NHS waiting lists, more teachers, more houses and a partridge in a pear tree.
Who else but Labour?

The problem with these polls on NSC is that most of us share many of the same views and as such the results of any poll are in no way representative of the electorate at large

I’m perpetually stunned that there is anyone in 2024 looking at British politics and saying “Yes, this Conservative Party is the party for me.”

How is it possible to carry that much hate for yourself, your country, and everybody in it?

I understand that there are people who will never vote Labour, and that’s fine, the Liberal Democrats exist as a perfectly reasonable centre-right party who aren’t Labour.

If your politics are much further to the right, Reform has your back, they’re there to vote for.

What I genuinely can’t get is anyone watching Rishi Sunak in the rain, as if the British government can no longer afford to host events indoors, and thinking “this incarnation of the Conservative Party is so effective and well-run, another five years of this is EXACTLY what Britain needs.”

I’d be interested in learning whether the IP addresses of those who have voted Conservative actually originated from within the UK. I fear NSC has been targeted in a Russian cyberattack. And @Is it PotG? of course.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

I think most of us think that, but in the interests of not ending up with the lowest quality option voting for someone should be compulsory.

Even if none of them match your political views?

I shall be doing what i normally do at Elections, not voting

 

[chickens]

Whoever is the least dull. So none of them have my vote yet.

I’m not convinced that “entertaining” is the criteria to judge politicians by. We tried that with Chummy Johnson and his Funtime Pals.

It's always depressing having to vote in Scotland in an SNP stronghold as it feels pretty useless..... best you can hope for is to add to the overall UK Labour vote share....sadly I don't think the campervan party will suffer much of a dent in their Westminster seats....especially if Scotland do ok at the Euros....

 

[Hugo Rune]

I’ll be voting whichever way Carol tells me to as my preferred outcome is that the Tories are reduced to being the 3rd party in the UK and not the official opposition.



Only pressure from the Libdems and Greens can see our economy being fixed by rejoining the EU.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Spoiled ballot, none of the above.

I think you might be on to something here.

If enough jump on this bus, the wishy-washy Lib Dems may get a shed load of seats, and in a coalition bin existing student loans.

I'm in.

Johnson spent a fortune making a press room in Number 10, so what’s happened to that?

My vote will be tactical to get rid of the Tory puppet in my area.

I didn't say entertaining. I said least dull. Even John "election expert" Curtice has described them as "dull as dishwater".
I would like to be inspired. Is that too much to ask?

Some people don't deserve a vote.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Some people don't deserve a vote.

There are plenty around, trust me.
