    The way it's set up, we have to vote for the lesser out of the 2 evils and tbh that's Labour for me, I prefer Ed.

    First pass the ballot system is flawed. My constituency is a very safe labour stronghold. My vote means nothing. At least the vote for councillors and mayor somewhat matter.

    My constituency is a heavy dominated Tory area. Even if I wanted to vote Green party, my vote would be irrelevant. Electoral reform is what we need

    Yeah people are under the image under Conservative the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. But if people bothered to look at Conservative policies they'd realise the poor get poorer and the rich get poorer too. Its just realistic changes so that the country can start making a Trade Surplus so it can start improving.

    Austerity. Rising prices and energy bills. Increased taxes and separation between the low and high class. A continuation of the bedroom tax and council tax. Zero hour contracts. Privatization of the nhs. The list goes on.

    f--- the Tories.

    Labour we're first to start privatising the NHS. Prises will raise more under labour and their £8 minimum wage due to inflation. Taxes and wages are the same as Labour. Council tax is going to be continued regards of party. So you have the small points of bedroom tax and energy bills in that list. I'd rather have those and start making a surplus in 2019 as well as an EU referendum than still be making a deficit every year come the next election.

    You have a habit of changing subject when proved wrong don't you? Brainwashed by the media and all of a sudden you think your smart and come out with false points.
    If it makes you feel better I will use correct grammar from now on.
