Like the OP I live in a very Tory area. They will always hold these seats so all parties can really disregard such very safe seats - be they Tory or Labour. The only seats that matter are the few (comparatively) that change hands regularly. These are the seats that decide elections. Maybe 100,000 votes can swing it one way or the other. The other millions of votes don't really change anything.S OP vote for who you like, or close your eyes and make acr0ss, it won't change anything. However the fact that - if polls can be believed - the SNP are about to clean up north of the border will upset the normal pattern rather. I don't really care what the SNP do at Holyrood but the thought that they might have a major role in the UK government horrifies me. For that reason alone I hope that somehow the Torys can cobble together enough support to keep the SNP out. Hopefully the possibility of a Lab/SNP alliance may persuade many otherwise Labour voters to abstain or vote elsewhere.

Quote Turd Alert at 06 Mar 2015 9.53am Morning All, I am a first time voter, Never 'Studied' politics in an educational term but always watch Question time and listen to LBC I am really struggling to relate to any party at the moment; What is it you look for in a party? What swings you to vote for X / Y. There is a split within my family of Tories and UKIP and both have been pushed onto me but i do not wish to be swayed to vote in lieu of my parents / grandparents / uncle / aunts voting opinions. Its a big deal to me, as when i watched the 2010 elections i felt betrayed as the Lib dems turned their back on the younger generation by for what i see, plain balls***, via increasing their student fee's. I almost feel an instant dislike for the party and feel i will never vote for them. As for all the others, man i just do not know where to look, what to read, and how to make my decision. Sorry if this is boring and stuff but i am just seeking some help / advice! thanks in advance! Check out TUSC R.I.P staffie
