British 2015 general election poll

I would've voted Green in the European election (you might be able to tell my views on the environment from the insane amount my nation spends on it) but in general elections I am of the opinion that they're all full of reactionary, bourgeois, lying pricks in suits and WE NEED A FUCKING REVOLUTION.

Labour. I'm not happy with their polices on Europe and immigration, but the NHS and stabilizing a public sector punchdrunk after all the cuts are more important issues for me and I won't risk them by a protest vote in a national election.

I guess Labour.

I really like the Lib Dems as an individual party (i.e. the policies of no tuition fees, social liberalism, higher tax-free allowance etc), but I'm unsure if I'd vote for them considering their coalition with the Tories,

I can't work out Ed Miliband. I can't decide if I like him or not.. I like Labour's policies of the 50p tax rate, higher minimum wage, and the increased funding for the NHS, but he seems to be a bit hard on the welfare state. (reducing benefits for young people, less spending on welfare etc) Hmm.
He shifts between centrist populist and credible social democrat each day, it seems.

Of the the top of my head Id say Labour, but only if they change foreign policy. Im ok with a Tory victory as long as LibDems, UKIP and SNP doesnt win. Also Im for Sinn Fein.

I know they're unpopular. But, I'm just curious since he seems like a centrist who might be alright with them.

At this point right leaning centrists will just vote Tory, there's loads of moderate Liberal Conservatives in the Tory party who are just as "moderate" as the current Lib Dem line up, but the difference is these moderate Tory mp's will still exist in 7 months, where as the Lib Dems won't. :lol2:

I literally can't see who would benefit from the Lib Dems at this point, as has been said before, they either need to go back to their centre-left progressive roots, get rid of Clegg and the orange bookers, and rebuild their party, or officially become a centre-right classical Liberal party, and perhaps try to model themselves off the Dutch VVD.

If you need mellowing out a little, my boyfriend will vote Tory without a shadow of a doubt, so I'm basically neutralized ¦3

The Conservative Party has always been supported by my family, and I share their views.
Of course, U.K.I.P is growing very quickly, but they seem slightly unprofessional at present.

Labour should pledge to scrap most welfare and NHS reforms and benefit cuts.

esp. the bedroom tax, benefits cap (or, at least, the housing benefit should be excluded from the cap), cuts to child benefit, etc.
(I believe Labour have already pledged to scrap the Health and Social Care Act 2012)

I'd support the Liberal Democrats if their manifesto is good.

He's of Polish Jewish background, but I don't see how physical looks or skin colour for example should affect ones "Britishness".

Until very recently I couldn't decide between Labour, Lib Dem and Conservative but all of the pandering to the right wing the Conservatives have been doing has risked distancing them from the centre, where I am and where a pile of undecided voters are. I think I'm a bit closer to the Lib Dems than to Labour(91% Lib Dem according to some sort of political survey) despite their over-readiness to compromise and shift.

Personally I dislike most of them however my local MP is Dennis Skinner who has an almost perfect attendance record, claims the least expenses and always finds time to speak with the people in his seat. Therefore even though I may not agree with all of Labour's policies I know I've got the best MP in the House of Commons so I'll vote Labour.

It's a tad hypocritical talking about someone's immigrant/ethnic background when you come from Argentina though, a nation which is almost 100 percent populated by the descendants of foreign migrants and colonisers.

In future I'd think before you speak.

Oh it doesn't! He just doesn't look British, that's all. But really, it doesn't matter, I just don't like his proposals.
