    Fuck off you nosy cunt
    Funny you should say that, that's pretty much what I said to Jamie Stones representative the other day. Stones mother wouldn't even trust him behind the counter in her cake shop, why he thinks he can run a political party I don't know. Dumb twot couldn't even run an all night party...

    He's Lib Dem, by the way. They seem to rule here, and each and every one of them is a toss pot.

    This free broadband promise is supposed to come to fruition within 10 years. Err ...... doesn't that mean that it will not happen within the next parliament? So comrade Corbyn would need to win a second term in power to see it through. A false promise then - just for a change! Do these twats really think that we are as thick as they obviously are? Or do they just treat us with obvious contempt? I wouldn't trust Cobynski to run a bath, never mind our country (as someone else said - not my words unfortunately).

    Well I agree with everyone. Sitting on the fence. Wonder who the traitor will have fit the broadband probably all the terrorists he has as friends. Boris you would have to show him pictures so he knows what broadband is.
    Regards
    Joe.

    Of course! So that when they don’t get re-elected they can say they promised it then blame the new government for the failure!

    I don't see any party I'd want in power right now. I don't trust Boris. Jeremy's suffocating grey blanket of socialism will take us back to the early 1970s and the "sick man of Europe" title again. And in the unlikely event of the Lib Dems getting in, I can see this cold civil war over brexit turning hot if it's just cancelled (much as I want to stay in Europe - so that also excludes the brexit party for me as well).

    Might have voted SNP, but they don't seem to be fielding a candidate in Buckinghamshire. I'll probably vote Green, just to say I voted.

    The free broadband offer is just a cynical and hollow bribe, like many of the other recent promises to spend billions on [insert favourite cause here] if elected.

    Our daughter gets free broadband (and gas, electricity, water, laundry services, dog walking services...). Doesn't seem to make her any happier.

    Vote ‘Least Worst’.

    My left hand will be forcing my right hand to place a cross on the spot that least energises my gag reflex.

    A difficult time to find anyone I am willing to vote for, but one thing is certain, I will not be voting for Corbyn and his gang

    I agree, could be the 1970's all over again. The momentum politburo and len macusky are going to want payback for their support....the mind boggles.

    you obviously remember the 1970s like me 3 day working weeks, power cuts, garbage all in the streets, if some one farted out of tune the brothers would call a wild strike, Flying pickets you had to fight your way through to get to work, and worse of all the IRA pub bombings

    I remember the 70’s but somehow my memories are more like Giles cartoons than real life...

    Well everyone is missing the real issue, my candidates, 1 Conservative, 1 Lib Dem, 1 Labour. No one else. The conservatives at the last election had 55% of the vote, Lib Dems 32%. 74.8% turnout. Seeing as I don't want to vote for any of those 3 parties what do i do? Conservatives tax me at the expense of the rich and big business and dont give me anything. Lib Dems will cancel Brexit and will encourage the snowflake generation and allow the thugs smoking weed who try to intimidate dog walkers in the park at the end of my road to carry on doing their own thing because drugs especially cannbis dont hurt anybody and should be legalised. Labour will take us back to the winter of discontent and take away any freedom i have on the altar of stalinism.
    We are a relatively new constituency but the area has almost exclusively voted conservative since time began. Even protest votes dont change who the MP will be, step up Luke Hall once again.

    The result is, I am excluded from the "democratic process".

    That's why there should always be a box at the bottom that says "None of the above". Then you can have a limited number of new votes with new candidates and parties. If there's nobody worth voting for, why does there have to be a candidate returned as an MP ?
    Half of the treacherous twats don't represent their contituents wishes anyway.
    Look at the number of lying cheating MP's whose constituents voted to leave the EU but ignore their views. :mad:

    I don’t think everyone is missing the point mate... I’m in the same boat, there is no one I particularly want to vote in... but more a case of people I don’t want to vote in... but that’s where your democratic right comes to you, to choose the party which nearest aligns with your principles or represents your point of view in keys areas of policy and vote against the parties who offended your sensibilities.
    Chances are the election will result in an ambiguous parliament that doesn’t have a strong enough majority to get shit done anyway

    I really hope enough people do remember, cause otherwise we are on a very slippery slope....

    Worrying the difference between those that have and those that don't and the gap seems to be getting bigger!

    It was very real mate, along with power cuts and rubbish on the streets.

    Always look on the bright side of life?
    Maybe I’m an optimist,but unless something catastrophic happens,I can’t for the life of me see how Labour will govern a coalition of chaos,unless the dodgy voting techniques some of them use actually work?
