At the last one there was an OAP who ran as a true independent. He was ace, common sense, you could speak with him, he told you what he thought, not what he thought you wanted to hear. He got my vote.
Rather a person like him with intelligence and integrity than one of the spacktards from the three big gangs.

I tend to agree with this on the whole, and haven't voted since 2001. However I like the way UKIP are looking at the moment, and am quite interested in how many Tories (and indeed people from other main parties) are switching to UKIP. Wanted to do a blind poll on that though rather than a leading question. I've blown my cover now though. Quite interesting on the first 20 votes though. Fittster said:

You hiring a private army? Without the vote, how else can you affect an outcome?We don't have a 'non of the above' box do we? I can't remember.

I would guess that a few Tories have switched to UKIP.

UKIP - one issue party with fairly tired rhetoric. Yet to see any evidence of someone from the party with an IQ that reaches three figures. Is there even anyone else at the office other than Farage?
Conservative - continue to demolish my profession and demean the status of anyone who works in the industry. Why would I vote for a party that views the majority of the country as little more than slaves to the industries owned by their Etonian bumder chums? No chance.
Labour - continue to fail to offer a valid alternative to the Tories, despite the Tories bumbling from one screw up to the next since Christmas. Miliband, despite his comprehensive schooling, attacks Cameron as an "arrogant posh boy who doesn't get it", yet he's hardly worked his way up from the factory floor, parachuting himself into a safe seat a couple of miles down the road. He has zero in common with the vast majority of Doncaster nor much interest in the area beyond his passport to power.
Lib Dems - caught in Catch-22 in the mire of the last election. Haven't fought their corner hard enough and have been roundly pilloried for it. Nick Clegg is about to preside over the worst electoral catastrophe in at least 15 years, possibly ever. If he fell into a barrel of tits at the minute he'd come out sucking his thumb. They'll take years to recover from abandoning (some of) their principles.
Other - the 'wasted vote', as it were. Unless they can be galvanised under some centrist, socially libertarian and economically restrained (yet entrepreneurial-in-spirit) group then I've got no idea who to vote for.
My track record in general elections:
2010 - Lib Dem
2005 - Lib Dem
