I went tactical in the end. Not what I wanted to vote for but needs must and decision made.

We're going to get a junkshop Fib Dem cow no matter what. The others don't look any better either, as in the same bullshit. Mind you, one blessing is no one in this town is a Labour supporter.

And then a chance meeting with the Labour candidate last night convinced me to change my mind.
And no, I didn't vote Labour!

To be honest I could have voted with my heart (although I was undecided who that would be!) but ended up just wanting to put the boot in.

On this occasion, I didn't spoil my ballot paper and voted Reform. It is the party I am most aligned with in the Telegraph test quiz, I could not vote for the Tories or Labour, probably ever again, so I've definitely thrown the habit of voting Tory.

I am dreading waking up tomorrow and finding that the Monster Raving Labour party is in power. When Starmer abdicates, ( and he has already stated his reluctance to work full time) can you imagine Rayner as an ambassador for Britain on the World stage? No neither can I.

Yes indeed, prime minister Rayner. As mad as it sounds it's not as far fetched as some at Congress House would have us believe.

I have a few friends who are Lib Dem supporters ( one been a member ), and they vote tactically (Labour) here in order to try and defeat the Tory incumbent.
So which is posters choice of viewing tonight ?
For me its got to be BBC, for one main reason .. no bloody interuptions or adverts
As I type this, theres just over 10 minutes to go before polls close and the big Exit Poll results are announced on the stroke of Big Ben.

GB News for me, coverage starts in a few minutes.

That is why I can never support the LibDems - they tend to vote for what they are against instead of what they are for. I didn't vote today as there was no candidate who I was willing to support. TBH the names on the ballot were all the same to me and I dont care who wins.

In all honesty once the usual hype is over, we will have a lot regretting who they voted for once they realise they have once again voted for their own downfall.

It failed as it turned out but I did my bit.
