UK General Election
Looks like we're going to have the third General Election in 5 years. Makes a mockery of the Fixed Term Parliaments Act.
So, if you had a vote in your old constituency in the UK (maybe you still do), who would you vote for in this upcoming election, and why? |

Labour, they will give the electorate a chance to decide with a new binding referendum.

Re: UK General Election
I have the opportunity to vote in a safe conservative seat in north east England. I won’t be voting conservative. I’d consider a remain party if they just eased up on the EU worship. I’d probably consider the EU about 70% ok and I’d like to see a Corbyn-Trump handshake. |
Re: UK General Election
So... at the moment we agree that this election is all about Brexit.
If I were to vote I'd vote conservative. Already we see the Remain fear tactics being thrust into the fray. So I'd argue to start the leaving process to get ready for when the transition period's over. We'll see what happens on the 12th though.. to be followed by Friday the thirteenth, it'll be Black Friday for some... |
Re: UK General Election
I'll be voting Lib Dem. Hoping that enough people in my area (which was very much Remain) do the same and get rid of the absolute ejeet Tory MP we've had forever, fingers crossed his super safe seat isn't safe any longer.

On my display, only the Liberal Democrats are in italics - subliminal message? :lol:

Re: UK General Election
As I live in Canada now, and have no plans to the return to the UK for the foreseeable future, I don't think its fair, so I won't be voting, although one could argue that it would be justified if I did, with me still having financial interests over there.
If I was living in the UK I would vote, and I would vote conservative, hopefully to break the deadlock in Parliament, get a deal through, get Brexit done, so everyone in the the country can move on with their lives, although I feel there are better alternatives than Johnson as Prime Minister, there are a lot worse too. |
