|
1 |
| I do not agree with any one party's policies but on investigation found that I agree with 48% of the Lib Dems policies, 43% of Labour policies and only 38% of Tory Policies. Therefore there is no party that I have a major affinity with so have to vote for |

| I do not vote and will never vote, I do not believe in the goverment or royal family/royalty. I only believe that we at this moment in time are slaves to the royal family/goverment/monach and i will not play a part in there rules of bullyness and slavery |
|
1 |
| I don't TRUST ANY OF THEM but, I am what I am and that is why I will, probably, stay with the devil I know ... |
|
1 |
| I don't have any faith in any of the parties as they are all as bad as each other - none of them stick to their promises once they're elected so I don't feel comfortable in voting for any of them - I do want to vote. |
|
1 |
| I don't know why I choose one party over another |
|
1 |
| I don't like the other parties |
|
1 |
| I don't think the main political parties can represent my views, and I don't think they are as committed to this area as they are to doing what the party leadership tells them to do. |
|
1 |
| I don't think there's any points voting Lib Dem and I won't vote Labour. |
|

| I don't trust or believe any |
|
1 |
| I don't vote |
|
1 |
| I don't vote at all |
|
1 |
| I don't vote for any party they all try too hard to please everyone therefore their policies are watered down and meaningless |
|
1 |
| I dont like any of them |
|
1 |
| I dont want a hung parliament for the economy and also prefer labour to the other two cadnidates |
|
1 |
| I feel its time for a change and although i prefer conservatives, it time for a change |
|
1 |
| I hate David Cameron/Tories and I also agree with as much of Labour's policy as I do with the LD's policy. |
|
1 |
| I hate the Tory party, I have nearly identical feelings towards the Labour Party and I want to see a hung parliament after the election so that no one party has complete control. |
|
1 |
| I hate the tories |
|
1 |
| I have always voted Conservative, but the candidate is a local councillor who has been active in plans to concrete over the green belt |
|
1 |
| I have always voted conservative |
|
1 |
| I have always voted this way |
|
1 |
| I hesitate to say it has the 'best policies' but they have one or two half decent ideas among the crap which is more than can be said for the rest |
|
1 |
| I just can't bring myself to vote Labour after the recent fiasco's they've caused and I can still remember the disgraceful behaviour of the last Conservative government |
|
1 |
| I know the candidate personally and that person is far better than our present MP. |
|
1 |
| I know the local candidate and I want her to win. No other reasonable candidate stands a chance of winning. |
|
1 |
| I like the constituency MP for Labour and do not feel the Liberal Democrats have put forward a strong enough contender |
|
1 |
| I like the local MP |
|
1 |
| I like the sitting independent MP |
|
1 |
| I like their policies better than Labour's and there is no point in voting Lib Dem as it's a wasted vote. |
|
1 |
| I live in a very safe Labour seat, but my MP has been unproductive, and I like Nick Cleggs vigour for change |
|
1 |
| I may be tempted to vote labour due to press vilification of Gordon Brown, so unfair IMO |
|
1 |
| I need to know the candidate who should be from my area |
|
1 |
| I never will vote for Conservatives and overall Labour is doing a good job |
|
1 |
| I prefer their policies to the Labour or Conservative nes |
|
1 |
| I prefer what they stand for and being a Pensioner on Basic Pen. the Tories scare me. |
|
1 |
| I said other because as yet I have not been pursueded who is going to be best for the country and my family, once convinced I will then chose which way to vote pending on likely result |
|
1 |
| I shall vote for the party that I consider, at the time, to be the best of a bad bunch. |
|
1 |
| I think a change in givernment is about due |
|
1 |
| I think that the BNP is the only party that will get tough n immigration. |
|
1 |
| I think the Lib-Dems are the least untrustworthy of the current bunch of crooks and thieves. |
|
1 |
| I think the current election is focussed on negative issues and does not the reflect the good work done by Labour since 1997 |
|
1 |
| I trust my local candidate and not his major opponents |
|
1 |
| I vote for our labour MP - a good man - and to keep the tories out |
|
1 |
| I vote for the best candidate not a party |
|
1 |
| I vote for the person who actually lives in my area as they will then be concerned with it |
|
1 |

|
1 |
| I voted for my local MP |
|
1 |
| I want the particular candidate to win not his party |
|
1 |
| I want this country out of the European union. |
|
1 |
| I was brought up, and think of myself as conservative; however, at the moment though I think they're all pretty hopeless |
|
1 |
| I will decide when I know who the candidates are |
|
1 |
| I wish to register my dislike of the EU |
|
1 |
| I won't vote |
|
1 |
| I would give my vote for the M.P. who would be honest in there policies. |
|
1 |
| I would not vote but there was no option to choose that |
|
1 |
| I would prefer to vote for the Green Party, but since there is actually a chance of a hung parliament, then I'll vote tactically for the Lib Dems on this occasion, though I'm not sure that voting for them could ever be called tactical voting, since it pro |
|
1 |
| I would vote for my local MP who is Labour |
|
1 |
| I'd like to vote UKIP but their representative in the European Parliament was so bad-mannered I don't want to be assicated with them! Tories are most likely winners here so Lib Dem best option to change representative. |
|
1 |
| I'm voting for the person not the party |
|
1 |
| I'm voting labour as they are the best of a bad lot |

1 |
| Labour and the Conservatives promised a referendum on Europe and reneged. |
|
1 |
| Labour are the best of a bad lot. |
|
1 |
| Lack of trust in this government, lack of cohesive policies, the war in Iraq |
|
1 |
| Lib Dem have worst Banking policy of 3 parties and Labour has no chance of winning in my constituency which just leaves Conservatives |

| Liberal will have larger say in Westminster than Plaid |

| ON THE DAY |

| One reason, Europe. We dont need it and cant afford to support other countries at the present time. |
|
1 |
| Only the Lib Dems stand committed to electoral reform/ the democratisation of the corrupt Westminster electoral syatem |
|
1 |
| Opportunity to bring a fresh view of politics to a somewhat stagnated political system in the country |
|
1 |
| Other parties are committing to anything |
|
1 |
| Our Government is currently located in Brussels. There is no other party I can vote for that would repatriate control of our country. |
|
1 |
| Our local labour MP is always very supportive of his constituants |
|
1 |
| Our sitting MP is Lib Dem and is a very good constituency MP |
|
1 |
| Out of the three main parties, they've given out the most and clearest information about what they'd actually do to cut the deficit and protect the economy. I figure if the other two parties won't say, they have something to hide. |

|
1 |
| Specific policies, not the best overall. Individual candidates' views on ethical issues |
|
1 |
| Support to local issues and industry |
|
1 |
| The 2 main parties just squabble like children seem totally irresponsible |
|
1 |
| The 3 main parties are only concerned with how they look. They think it's a popularity contest not about running our country and niether of they will come clean and be totaly honest about their policies and spell it out for us. WE NEED TO KNOW HOW MUCH IT |
|
1 |
| The Country needs a change from the main 2 parties |
|
1 |
| The English Democrats don't have a representative in my area. I would vote for The Lib Dems but I feel that that would now be a vote for Labour! |
|
1 |
| The Labour Party has done so badly I feel the Conservatives may be able to turn things around |
|
1 |
| The Liberal Democrats have a very good record locally |
|
1 |
| The MP for my constituency has been excellent. I would vote for him even if he were of another party |
|
1 |
| The Tories want to repeal hunting with hounds, I can't vote for that. |
|
1 |
| The candidate is by FAR the best candidate to represent the constiteuney. And I have NO REASON to NOT vote for him as a Labour candidate. |
|
1 |
| The candidate is local so has more interest in the area than the other candidates who live in other areas. |
|
1 |
| The conservative party is the best of a bad bunch |
|
1 |
| The country cannot face another five years of Gordon Brown, Nick Clegg could be good but whether he could raise a decent government is unsure |
|
1 |
| The green party is not standing my constituency |
|
1 |
| The independant appears to share my fealings about politics and politicians |
|
1 |
| The least bad option, amongst a very poor choice |
|
1 |
| The local candidate seems a decent man. I don't really care for any of the parties at national level, but I think it's important to vote. |
|
1 |
| The one which convinces me it will honestly try to improve the situation in the country even if that conflicts with traditional values of the party. |
|
1 |
| The only real chance of getting rid of Brown and his cronies |
|
1 |
| The party has the best philosophy |
|
1 |
| Then I must have ticked the wrong box!!! I am unable to discern any major differences between political parties. The world is a "global village" and yet our so called leaders continue to believe that behaving aggressively to their neighbours is legitimate |
|
1 |
| There is no other acceptable alternative. I would like to see 'none of the above' on the ballot paper. |
|
1 |
| They always win around here |
|
1 |
| They seem like the best of a bad bunch. |
|
1 |
| They want us out of Europe! |
|
1 |
| They will be better than the other two for me as a pensioner |
|
1 |
| They will take us out of Europe |
|
1 |
| They will take us out of the EU |
|
1 |
| They're all pretty bad and Labour should be more left wing than Conservatives |
|
1 |
| This country needs a viable opposition to Labour. The Conservative party is living in the past - the distant past - and I believe that this country needs a strong Liberal Democrat party to replace the Conservatives. |
|
1 |
| Time for a change, current gov is complacent |
|
1 |
