Question Are you voting labour this year?

cleya2 · 03-10-2008, 05:20 PM

Hi,
i am a university student, currently doing a case study on the Labour party and Gordon Brown.
I think this site is a great way to talk to the nation about their views.

I am looking for opinions of a current Labour voter or an ex-Labour voter.

I would like to know, what things would persuade you to vote for Labour in the next election?

I would also like to know if there are any strong labour voters out there who are happy with what labour are doing?

any responses would be kindly appreciated, claire

While I wish you well with your studies Claire, I cannot believe ANYONE on this forum would contemplate voting for the current inept, traitorous and thoroughly obnoxious group of charlatans that masqerade as our current government!

I'm a former Labour voter (once in the mid nineties, on receipt of my first polling card and under immense parental pressure ). It made me feel dirty and used.

I would rather burn down my own house than cast a vote for them again even if they offered me what so ever my heart desired.

In the 45 years I've been old enough to vote I have never voted Labour, although I came close to allowing Blair to con me in '97! Some one said to me the other day they would rather walk down Plymouth's Royal Parade, bollock naked with a needle stuck in their eye and a feather up their **** singing 'Yankee doodle dandy' than vote Labour!

Claire, a min of £10,000 into my swiss bank account from Labour coffers might persuade me to vote labour - or perhaps a job in GB's cabinet (HoL will do!!) but i would need a cast iron guarantee (sorry, manifestos dont count) that there will be no increase in taxation or stealth taxes in the following 5 years.

If anyone would still vote Labour after all thats gone on, then you would be guilty of treason.

I have never voted for International Socialists or parties which sing out loud at every annual conference We'll keep the Red Flag Flying Here. It is tragic that after 70 years of communism active in the world and 100 million dead at their hands that anyone can vote for a socialist party which sings songs like this.
