due to my circumstances, I’ll be better off on UC anyway, so you’re completely wrong if you think it’s about me losing money.

Because it is very clearly not designed in the best interest of people on benefits? What exactly was wrong with the old system?
Because the only alternative is Corbyn....
Wasn't thrown together by some Conservatives in a bid to look like they're giving more money out, while actually taking some away in the process.

We lose something like 1% of our income on benefits when tax avoidance is worth far, far more. And yet we go after people on benefits because the Daily Mail says so.
Pretty much the problem.
It's the battle of the turd sandwich vs the giant douche. Can we have Ed back please?

I agree there should be an option of '' None of the above'' on every polling paper.
And the numbers voting none of the above should be read out on polling day to show those useless lying { sweary word } exactly what we think of them
Ermm...
Because rather than looking at the policies involved people think voting for x party means you fall into certain categories...
For example
Tory = upper middle class
Lab = lefty
Green = animal rights loony
Ukip = racist
(I jest with some of the above before I get grief)
Yeah... it's not like two or three Tory councils haven't gone bankrupt in the last few months/years and a few more on the way as well... Shame huh, they're both ******* terrible.
I thought you wanted Reed-Mogg as prime minister?

In a UK general election we probably wouldn't vote. The Tories are too busy stabbing each other in the back to run the country or get us a decent deal and are so out of touch it's a joke. I don't want that idiot Corbyn and has Momentum puppet masters anywhere near having power. The LibDems can take a running jump. The Greens will set us back to the stone age and I hate the one policy SNP with a passion so there is no party that deserves out vote.

I have never said I wanted JRM as PM. That’s a ridiculous notion.
It would be an utter waste of time. The only people who would care if 50% of the populace ticked "none of the above" are the losing side, who would harp on about how unreasonable it is to have a government that represents ~16% of the population.
The ultimate moaners.
Ask so much when they give so little, if they hated the situation as much as they did, they should maybe be the change they wish to see. (that's effort though)

Pretty much this, I generally don't vote because I don't like the choice, if I was offered different kinds of rotten meat on a sandwich I wouldn't eat anything, so why would I do this for voting
If I had to choose from the lesser of the evils I'd probably go with Green party because they at least might do some good for the environment
Hardly, because in that case you'll get the benefit of not eating a terrible meal. In this case, you'll still get a government you don't like.
I currently have an SNP MP and the only thing he is good for is toeing the party line which is absolute as far as the SNP are concerned. Twice is have contacted him with questionsquestions, nothing too difficult and on both occasions he has either passed the buck to my MSP who promptly passed it back or he has given a long winded response which had little to do with my question.
As there is no real alternative to the SNP then is probably would not vote.
