I'm voting lib dem, as i did before

Who are you voting for?

Lib Dem as I should be able to vote by then.

I'd vote greens, but they don't exist in the north. we just have the BNP, UKIP, the Conservatives, er, The kill the blacks party (whoops, sorry, just the BNP again there), Labour and the Lib Dems. My vote will be the least of these collective evils

So the Lib Dems, by the way

I will be voing Labour, because they are the only party that will stop the Conservetives getting into power especally with Michael Howard as their leader who still seems to be stuck in a failed Tatcherite past and will do nothing bit harm to the British public and the UK as a whole.

Ooh, a jibe at mister poll tax. not toooo difficult. But I agree, although it makes no difference as the party i would vote for can't ever really have a chance of becoming the dominant power after the falling out over the 1912 election. Labour should stay in power because the economy is thriving. there's no better incentive to keep a party in power than that. although once old tightfist brown loses control of the economy, it won't matter for me coz i'll be a med student on a bursary. thank god for the NHS

Labour only ever get about 12% in this constituency, out of the three parties that run here. It's a two-horse race between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats, so I'll be voting Lib Dem.

I'll be voting for the Tories (if I'm old enough)

Could be a long wait. Only really old people vote Tory these days. ;)

well I have been told that I'm going prematurely senile, that might explain it

if i'm young at heart but only 18, does that mean i can't vote? :D

The poll should include Welsh / Scottish Nationalist.

I predict the turnout in the general election will lower once again. The Tories haven't yet learned that Blair cannot be beaten by moving to the right and too many people still think of the Tories as monsters (maybe general election 2009 / 2010 - if they have Boris Johnson as leader by then).

The Lib Dems still haven't decided what their policies are, but their anti-war policy and move to the left should take votes from former Labour Loyalists.

Gordon Brown has the economy in the best shape its ever been in (whether that will last into the next term, we can't say) but it is impossible for me to vote Labour due to my personal dislike of Blair, the war, deceit and Uni top up fees. I live in a very safe Labour constituency (a swing of abour 25% required to unseat my MP) and so it probably won't be worth my trouble to get out and vote.

Labour should have another easy win, but with a lower turnout and Blair will come out bruised.

If I were old enough, Lib Dem, but as a protest vote more than anything. Labour will win the next election, but their majority should be significantly reduced due to bad feeling about the war. Lib Dems would be a disaster in government, their policies wouldn't work economically, but they're the only viable centre-left option left. If they got into opposition, and actually thought that they had a chance of becoming government, they might produce some sensible policies. Tories are deeply unpopular.
Labour have done good things for the economy, but I just wouldn't be able to bring myself to vote for them.
