Not been yet, but always been a Lib Dem and no change this time. My other half has been stirred enough by the debates to have voted for the first time ever (age 38!!!) and says he's gone Lib Dem too. Hoping for a sufficient split for a change to come without having to resort to putting the Tories in charge.

So all the lib dem voters on here are up for paying the 4% local income tax and joining the euro then?

Most of the lib dem "supporters" seduced by Clegg that I've asked hadn't worked out that for households with two or more working adults (sometimes 4 or more when kids live at home) this meant their local taxes would rise from £1,000 of council tax to £4,000+ of local income tax a year. Under the lib dem system only single parent households and non working households would be better off under their "fair system of tax".

Most Tory (and Labour) supporters haven't realised that the country is broke and that whoever gets into power will have to make cuts/put up taxes, even if the parties won't acknowledge it publicly.

Ha anybody noticed what is happening in Greece this week?

Tax the very high earners and don't raise the inheritance tax threshold -it doesn't affect that many people and the wealthy are far more able to spare the cash than the less well-off.

all the limp dem voters know that as the electoral system is so massively stacked against them they have a snowballs in hell of getting any of the measures you talk about through

and you really think they would join the euro now?
although assuming it survives if we entered we could probably dictate some excellent terms

and farmer john most limp dem voters accept that you cant pay american levels of tax and expect scandanavian levels of public service

and dont believe everything you read in murdochs/camerons press

Sounds fair to me.

I see Clegg has had the speech in which he passionately spoke in favour of joining the Euro removed from his website

Considering that if your policy is to have a [i]referendum[/i] then every anti Liberal states categorically that Liberals would definitely take us into the Euro (ie totally misrepresents the policy) then its hardly surprising that it gets deemed not worth discussing.

What exactly is the objection to having a referendum?

ive voted lib dem since he iraq war as they were the only party to not be swept up in the bloodlust at the time

here are my reasons for not voting labservative......

voting tory seems crazy when we have essentially had a tory giovernment for the last 25 years, since nulab repositioned themselves to the right ......

deregulation of the banks, finance over manufacturing, privatisation of everything, house ownership and rocketing houseprices for all etc etc

only diffrenece is nulab spent more on public services and taxed the rich a bit more, oh and the fox hunting thing, FOI and minimum wage

so the tories will get into power now
slash public services, increase vat, cut family tax credits- stuff that affects the little guy most
they will raise money by selling off everything thats left, ie the NHS just like hanahan has promised his american paymasters and more importanatly Peter Gershon camerons advisor and chairman of the largest private healthcare company in the UK who stands to make billions from it all)- to be fair nulab were gonna do this anyway tho perhaps not to the same extent

the tories (like nulab) will do nothing to halt eu immigration; they cant, they dont want to as all their friends at the CBI want their farms factories and warehouses staffed by the lowest possible paid workers

they wont raise employers NI contributions, not yet anyway, as a favour to all the businessmen who donated to their campaign

and then they will hack up the bbc, sell bits off and reduce it to nothing
which of course is why rupert murdoch and the right-wing press are salivating over a cameron victory (murdoch will no longer have to start charging for the times website as he said he would in june (just after the election!)

only the lib dems offer anything slightly different
(also only they opposed both wars- the tories have a hard on for war worse than nulab)

I live in a Tory safe seat... by a massive majority (Tim Yeo)

Normally I spoil my ballot paper None of the above stylee, but its going to be Lib Dem this time.

Actually saw the pompous twunt out canvassing in my village this time. First time he has condescended to so so in the 27 years I've lived there, (my ward normally returns Liberal councillers) so obviously been told to get his fat blue backside into action or something. Worried?? Whaderyerekcon???

Like I said, probably because it is so misrepresented.

We wouldn't even be allowed in the Euro at the moment, and if we ever get healthy enough it could never be done without a referendum. Despite all of that, people will cheerfully claim that Liberals would ave us in the Euro.

Repeating myself as usual.

I always vote Lib Dem, BTW, in answer to query above. Voted Green in Euro elections because it has PR.

Lib Dem manifesto commitment could mean I'm out of a job so can't risk that. Plus wondering where our power is going to come from in 20+ years with their "no Nuclear power stations" thing, don't want to be (even more so) reliant on Russian gas pipes. That coupled with their local income tax and reduction of capital gains allowance from 10K - 1K per year means I'm hit hard in the pocket to boot. So no ta Cleggy 🙂

"You've still got to wonder why that speech was removed from the LibDems website though"

Simple: it's a pipe dream at the moment and also not a popular policy. LibDems are happy to peddle several "unpopular" policies e.g. immigrant amnesty. But a row about the Euro right now really adds nothing and probably strengthens the Conservatives.

The LibDem policy on nuclear power annoys me. But I think they will come around before the lights start going out. Still voting for them today.

My local tory is likely to win, last majority was 7000 however that dropped form 14000 the time before that.

Even if the Liberals don't win this time I hope to see his majority cut further then maybe next time the Liberals will win.

I'm in this for the long haul! As for the local taxes it's simple really all the parties are going to have to raise taxes and cut spending it's obvious.

3 months ago this was a two horse race now it's a 3 way split in 5 years I hope the lib dems will have built enough confidence that they will finally win a significant number of seats.

I was quite tempted to vote Tory because they have such a talentless shadow cabinet that I suspect they'd **** things up even worse than Labour have and never see power again in my lifetime. But then i'd have to sell my lifeblood and soul to the factories of despair and would never be able to look in a mirror again.

So I voted Labour instead.

EDIT: Love the way a couple of Tory voters have had to put shades on their smilies to hide their identities... 😉

Lib dem. First voted that way (1997) as I never understood the two party system. Now, well, my original sentiments still stand really and the policies (now I actually look at them) strike a chord (Trident, tax threshold, bank breakup etc).

Conservative.

Lib Dems have policies made up to appeal to as many people as possible, rather than to actually make sense.

Pensions, power, immigration: their policies just don't add up. Shame really as their candidate would make a great MP.

Can't vote Labour in this area as they don't have a candidate. Probably wouldn't vote for them if they did though. Gordon is a one trick pony: if there's a problem, throw other people's money at it.

At least this is a pretty interesting election. The worrying thing is that six months ago it was inconceivable that Cameron could fail to win. Even if he scrapes in he's not exactly instilling anyone with confidence in his ability to lead: if he fails to prosper in security what's he going to be like in adversity?

Lib Dem. They're the only ones who seem to have noticed that the reason the economy is completely ****ed is due to the banks. And maybe, just maybe.... if it isn't too much of a radical idea.... maybe we should do something to ensure they don't do it again.
