April 28, 201114 yr What a bizarre tactic, so easy to be found out as well. The Lib Dem ones last year annoyed me, they put charts in their General Election leaflet with numbers from the last local election where they came second.
April 29, 201114 yr What a bizarre tactic, so easy to be found out as well. The Lib Dem ones last year annoyed me, they put charts in their General Election leaflet with numbers from the last local election where they came second. That is a bit dodgy but at least it was only using one election.
May 1, 201114 yr Author Poll for the English local elections indicate Labour should pick up around 1300 council seats, the Tories should lose about 1000 seats, and the Lib Dems should lose about 400 (about a quarter of the seats they're defending... which is perhaps better than would be expected). Worse news for the Lib Dems in the Leicester South Westminster by-election though... in a seat which has been a close Lib-Lab marginal in recent times, the Lib Dems are set to slip into third place with a poll putting them on 14% (half their score at last year's election), behind the Tories on 20% and Labour on 61%.
May 5, 201114 yr I FEEL DIRTY. I voted Yes/Lib Dem - C/SNP - R. Anyone know where I can get a decontamination shower?
May 5, 201114 yr Voted Yes to AV and Lib Dem in the council elections. Lib Dem councillors here have generally done a good job although I have had two completely anonymous Tory councillors for the last four years. Besides, the only other candidates were Tories and UKIP with no Labour or Greens.
May 5, 201114 yr Author I FEEL DIRTY. I voted Yes/Lib Dem - C/SNP - R. Anyone know where I can get a decontamination shower? Hissssssssssss. Voted Yes to AV and Labour in the Birmingham elections. Hoping to kick out the Tory-Lib Dem coalition on the council :wub:
May 5, 201114 yr Author Also, two other people out of my block of 30 are voting. The political establishment are doing as great a job of getting young people engaged as ever. :cheer: (Although, in fairness, another person did want to go and vote Conservative, but unfortunately I "forgot" where our polling station is when she was asking.)
May 5, 201114 yr Voted yes to AV, first choice Labour, second choice Lib Dem in local mayor elections and Labour for council elections!
May 5, 201114 yr I'm 18 in less than a month, what a pain. Still, I know three of the Labour candidates for Trafford council which is odd. One of them hasn't even finished school yet.
May 5, 201114 yr Voted NO to AV as did my wife and mum, as a kick in the teeth for the FibDems. What a pathetic little creature you are. You get the chance to vote in a national referendum for the first time in your life and you can't be bothered to vote according to the merits of the issue in question.
May 5, 201114 yr What a pathetic little creature you are. You get the chance to vote in a national referendum for the first time in your life and you can't be bothered to vote according to the merits of the issue in question. Erm who the hell are you to call me names like that? :angry: I'll vote how I please thank you very much. :angry:
May 5, 201114 yr Erm who the hell are you to call me names like that? :angry: I'll vote how I please thank you very much. :angry: When people are still dying across the world to try to win the right to vote, it's rather pathetic to see people voting for such trivial reasons.
May 5, 201114 yr When people are still dying across the world to try to win the right to vote, it's rather pathetic to see people voting for such trivial reasons. Maybe but I doubt we three were the only ones to vote for that reason.
May 5, 201114 yr Well you, your family unit and the people like you should not have the right to vote.
May 5, 201114 yr From the BBC: A poll of Scottish voting intentions, conducted by Progressive Scottish Opinion for Scottish editions of the Daily Mail, was published at 2200 BST and predicts an SNP overall majority. For the constituency vote it suggested the SNP would win 51% of the vote; Labour - 26%; Conservative 12%; Others 7%; Liberal Democrats 4%. For the regional vote list it suggested the SNP would win 53% of the vote; Labour 22%; Conservative 12%; Green 5%; Others 5%; Liberal Democrats - 3%. Looks like i'm on track to be voting in another referendum in the next 5years. This time I will be voting No.
May 5, 201114 yr Maybe but I doubt we three were the only ones to vote for that reason. I'm sure you weren't but that just makes it worse overall. Voting on a personality rather than an issue is an insult to the brave people giving their lives for the right to vote in places like Libya.
