Oh they do! Haven't you heard them?

They're full of promises of what they're going to do (if we elect them) which, coincidentally, seem to be all the things that we the people have been complaining about all these years.

What a surprise!

Of course, those of us with minds of our own know full well that these are just meaningless words. They never do what they promise.

I agree JBR, and this leaves me honestly not knowing what to do at voting time.
What are we supposed to do when we don't believe any of them?

H

I will not be voting for any of the Main Parties.

We have an Independent standing here, I will be voting for her.

Re: Spoil your ballot paper.

We have a choice of four candidates, no Brexit or Independent. The conservative candidate is new. The other has done his worst and now resigned but left it to the last minute to make announcement.

Labour look likely to win now, a female Jeremy Corbyn.

Re: Spoil your ballot paper.

Really it's not about candidates, it's about parties. If track record is taken into account and the direction a party is taking things become clearer.

Labour has become the facade of Momentum which is Militant Tendency rebranded with hatred of Jews added.

The Lib-Dems have become more impractical and Snowflake infested and being used by the Remain-ers as a place of hope

The Conservative party are totally riven because of self interest in BREXIT and the BREXIT party are a protest party.

Me? Closer to the day I'll decide to either vote Conservative or tactically in order to try to keep Labour out

Re: Spoil your ballot paper.

Its either Tory or Lib Dems down here,Tory is the less evil choice I think.
The former Tory MP,stood down after the election was announced for personal reason's,the new candidate is like her predecessor a brexit supporter,so I rather suspect she'll win.
