Are YOU Afraid to Vote on Thursday?

Do you know ANYONE who is afraid to vote on Thursday because of the threat of Islamic terrorism?

The devious and dishonest Matthew Wright did the main 25 minute segment this morning on this issue, claiming some people wouldn't vote because of such a fear. And therefore it's one reason why the election should be delayed

The three panelists didn't seem to point out he was talking bollocks and neither did any of the callers to the show.

Surely he was talking bollocks? Or are you afraid to vote? Or know anyone who is?

I always vote but it won't do me any good, too many sheep in our constituency.

Everyone who is eligible to vote should do so. Showing fear, and not going about your daily business as usual, is playing into the hands of terrorists.

It's not that I'm afraid to vote. I just don't trust either party, so am abstaining.

I'm voting and then I'll let off a few fireworks to celebrate.

The recent events will take neither of these away from me.....

Why would I be afraid to walk down the lane and enter the church hall?
Apart from being struck by lighting I can't see I'd have any problems.

Re: Are YOU Afraid to Vote on Thursday?

Hi

Prees Village Hall is hardly a target.

I will be voting, I cannot and will not vote for our longstanding Tory, he is an ultra right wing, fox hunting supporting arrogant git.

I cannot and will not vote Labour as long as Corbyn is in charge, and the thought of Diane Abbott as Home Secretary is simply too horrific to contemplate.

I will have to vote for one of the others.

Me too - a non-believer entering `sacred ground` blasphemy!
