    Default UK - Council and European Election

    Did you vote in either ?

    Do you give a monkeys about either ?

    What are your thoughts on the early indicators and results on how people have voted ?

    Are UKUNT UKIP divisive and hypocritical racist cunts or a breath of fresh air ?

    Do you not think it ironic that UKIP, BNP, English Democrats, An Independence From Europe Party, Noto Eu, Britain First, etc all fielded candidates to stand for election into a European Parliament that they do not believe in or want any part of ? A friend on FaceFook earlier in the week compared it to Dennis the Menace and Gnasher standing for election as School Governors


    Did you change who usually vote for after being a staunch labour/Conservative/liberal party etc supporter for years? If so why?

    I voted Labour in the local elections and Green in the European ones.

    I want the Tories out.

    I have to vote, too many people have died for me to waste it.

    I voted Trade Unionists and Socialists Against Cuts in the local council elections and Green Party in the European elections. The Greens are the only party to have the bottle to suggest renationalising things and thinking outside of the box. The huge swathing cuts that the Tories have implemented have consistently hurt the poorest in society and the Greens would re- address that as well as sorting out the failed transport infrastructure. Would have voted Green locally but there was not a candidate standing.

    The cuts are bad and are hurting the poorest in society, we need more social housing and jobs with
    a living wage,it's a joke people are cold and hunger in this Country we started the industrial revaluation.
    Great Britain at one time now just a Bankers paradise, a sad state the few have millions and the many
    have fuck all.

    I started voting Green party when Blair went to Iraq. I have to vote labour for local and general elections because I hate the Tories to get in.

    What are you doing to learn to trust a mp? It sounds a covenant excuse not to vote because you are being lazy.

    Master I feel people don't trust politicians, what do people do when they don't think theses people
    don't deserve there vote,! simple they vote for no one action speaks, louder than words many
    false promises the voters here Frankly people have had enough.
    This Country is turning into the land of super markets, because that's all that seems to be built
    very few houses, and of course very few well paid jobs.
    The recession has hit US ALL, Tory's just make cuts weather we are in recession or not that's the
    nature of the beast.
    We must remember the people who make decisions, are well healed millionaires out of touch
    with you and me. I would love to see theses shit houses live on £56 a week, poverty is rife
    food banks in a modern world it's a fucking disgrace.

    Yes I agree but you can see why people will not vote, people fought to have a vote and people seem
    to forget that. Yes mate people should vote.

    I don't vote domestically at all anymore as just as I lay no claims on the state, I also expect them to have no claims on me. I can register as an overseas voter, but I see no point in making such an effort. I also understand the views of those who say their vote makes no difference. UKIP is suggesting that at least there is another party on the horizon, but in truth, asides from immigration, I don't really have very much in common with UKIP. In a way UKIP's rise might be the shake up that's needed as all three of the other parties should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves, particularly in the way they have allowed unchecked immigration, student debt to rise exponentially, an allegiance to the most corrupt banking in the world, another housing bubble, a police state (with no explanation), fracking and continued privatisation (including now the NHS). It's hardly even voting for the lesser of evils looking at such policies. It's a mess and maybe the ballot box isn't the way to go anymore. I think the recent slander of Farage by the main parties and the media has been atrocious too and it has actually made me think more favourably of him too. He is up against pure scum who would much rather throw mud pies than sort themselves out in the interests of their people. It has never been more clear just how warped the British establishment is.

    Eton schoolboy pieces of trash all cloned in the same schoolyard factory. People probably want someone genuine who won't be bought by the banks or US dictators.
