Is it possible to re-open the polling at the top of this thread?

I get to vote in Reading East, my last UK residence. The seat had been Labour under New Labour but reverted to Tory in 2010. If the Lib Dem vote can dissipate, there is still a chance for Labour, so I have to vote Labour.In truth, I've always voted Labour and find it hard, even with the current Centrist/Austerity/Anti immigration labour bollocks, to think of voting otherwise. I tried voting tactically once in 1992 for the Lib Dems in South Kesteven, East Midlands. That ended up with an increased tory majority. The Lib Dems are a soiled ballot sheet in my view.If the SNP stood in England, I would be tempted to vote for them.

I've reset the poll. I'm voting Green in a safe Labour seat. Totally pointless vote then.Will be voting TUSC, Green and Labour in the local council elections.On a depressing note, I bumped in to the complete fucking lunatic who runs one of Nottingham's two rival Left Unity groups (yep, you read that correctly). Asked him whether he'd be voting for the TUSC candidate; he said no, because he doesn't like him.The Left in 2015, ladies and gentlemen.

Well done SNP.Now you wil have a Conservative minority government or coalition with likes of DUP governing the whole of the UK. You utter idiots.Murdoch and co is PROUD.

And youll now have a Tory government to have a lot of say in that.

Any party that wants to govern the UK needs to win England's votes. If you want to point the accusing finger start there.Oh so the Scottish verison of The Sun of doesnt back the SNP?Wake up please and acknowledge when you / we are being played off.

Basic point is the SNP vote has helped Tory vote in the UK.

SNP have moved themsleves to left of Labour of ONLY last 10 years if that because of how crap Labour have been. To mop up votes. But SNP was never a union party.Why is it the likes of Rupet Murdoch and the Scottish Sun has expressed support for SNPto polar oppsoiste in EnglandClassic case of divide and conquer.Youre being mugged in almost-slow motion.SNP never was a 'left' wing party originally.

In the mid 80's they were known as Tartan Tories. But that the great thing about the party, they evolved, they now reflect the collective political consciousness of much of Scotland. They are more left wing than the Labour Party have been in decades.
