I've voted Tory all my life but not tomorrow.

Would vote Reform but they've got no chance (if standing) in my area as labour always win with a large majority of mainly immigrants/migrants.

So instead i'm gonna spoil my paper so at least when they read out the result it may count as 1 spoiled paper and I'll feel like my voice has been heard albeit on a small scale.

Apart from that, get ready for 10 plus years of socialist, woke, lies, lies and damn lies folks!!
(which is much the same as what we've had but just on a larger scale).

It would be funny if ‘spoilt ballots’ got the most ‘votes’…

 


hats off to palace, they were always gonna be louder, and hate to say it but they were impressive ALL bouncing and singing.

That is merely a matter of opinion. There was much to admire, not least her steadfastness and determination, but also much to dislike.

I was sent to war by Maggie in '82, was injured, lost my ship, BUT, we all agreed that she was right to do, what she needed to do. You've never served, never diss what she did.

 


This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

You could put one of her hats on the Front Bench of the Commons and it would do a better job than Starmer will do.

One vote will achieve no such thing. Once in a thousand years or so one vote may decide the outcome in one seat but it will never decide the outcome of an election.

Of course not but one vote placed anywhere won’t either.

If enough vote tactically in the future then it will make a difference. Voting against extremes will become normal.

What's the definition of "extreme"? Is Farage more extreme than Corbyn?

I didn’t say that. She was needed at the time. Emasculating the Unions was important and I fully supported the concept of the community charge, a much fairer way to pay for local services than council tax.

If there was a party called "None of the above" I wonder how many votes it would get.

Impossible question. They come from polar opposite points of view. Corbyn was always obviously extreme left. Farage less obviously extreme right, being more presentable and urbane, but is probably the bigger threat.

I didn’t! I praised her steadfastness and determination!

Although I rather think it was General Galtieri’s decision to invade the Falklands that was responsible for you going to war.

Of course they are opposites but the point is that a vote for the opposition was ipso facto a vote for an "extremist".
