Poll: General election voting intentions poll

[Adnams Drinker]

Would have been Conservative once upon a time, but those days are gone - Cameron is nothing more than 'Tony Blair lite', so it'll be the same as the Euro elections and I'll be voting UKIP.

You will find me cutting my balls off with a pair of rusty shears in Cambridge market square before I EVER vote Labour - a truly vile, unscrupulous bunch of Common-Purpose-indoctrinated goons.

Absolutely, pathetic organised protest against a legitimate politician but girls being raped with impunity while a socialist council does nothing.

I rest my case ... presumably we can expect this bunch of Labour/union-funded Brownshirts to make an appearance every time Farage speaks between now and May? How ironic that an unwashed, suspiciously job-free rent-a-mob purport to be anti-fascist, but do such an admirable job of fascist behaviour ... Hitler and Mussolini would be soooo proud!

 

[RDM]

explain to me which political party is in favor of child rape?

I didn't say they were? I was just pointing out that they were very quick to act against UKIP (who were doing nothing illegal) and very slow to act against Child Sexual Exploitation and rather than spend time trying to solve the problem they instead tried to spend time and money punishing the whistle blowers.

Perhaps if they had put as much energy in to that situation less girls would have suffered.

I felt bad for George Galloway to be honest. Someone at the BBC evidently thought 'You know what would be fun? George Galloway in front of an audience of Zionist Jews. That'd make great telly'. I don't think the case for 'George Galloway is an anti-Semite' was very successful. It's pretty clear he isn't. He's just got a thing against Israel, Islamic State and other entities that push a message of intolerance over religious tolerance. Sadly, with our government being rather pro-Israel, he seems to feel the need to act as a counterbalance, resulting in him saying stupid things.

Errr... you do know George Galloway's history right? That man is as vile as Nick Griffin was, and the fact you called those Jews in the audience 'Zionist' just shows what type of person you are, and i have no time for you sir

 

[McBain]

without reading the entire thread the polls scores are terrifying...15% would vote labour OMG.............

Indeed, frightening.

 

[robgmun]

My parents didn't vote last time but both are voting this time, largely to show additional support against UKIP despite no candidate being in their constituency, and part against SNP although there is no stopping them.

Voting against UKIP where UKIP arn't running, yeah that'll show them

Not even to talk about how dumb that is!

I'm no fan of Galloway, don't get me wrong, but, he's anti Israel not anti Jew, his beef is with the government and its handling - or lack of - the Palestinian situation, not the population as a whole.

However, he is still a very eloquent idiot!

As opposed to Nick Griffin who is just an insult to idiots!

He would never say out loud he's anti-jew because being anti-Semitic is actually a hate crime here, so he's careful.

So what he does instead and travel the world and shake hands with anyone who are extremely anti-Semitic, if he was sure he wouldn't get beheaded i'm sure he would have traveled to ISIS to be shaking hands with them as well.

George Galloway is another example of 'I'm not racist but...' Just like nick griffin.

The fact that it is a different group of apologists making excuses for him doesn't change that.

Since the vast majority of Jews support Israel what's the difference? It's a bit like saying "I'm not against Muslims, just the ones who go to Mosques".

I find it truly scary for the future of this country that there's places that are no-go areas for Jews (Bradford) and places that are no-go areas for people like Galloway (Finchley). Community cohesion it seems is diminishing rapidly.

I'm surprised Milliband is still leader.

I hope he is leader until the election. Can he not see for labours success he needs to step down?

Well strengthening a lead in other areas can't really hurt and shows support for a party whose views you prefer. It's not really dumb at all and I can see the prospect of a more influential UKIP bringing a lot more people out to vote, which is about the only useful thing they'll do!

Oh i agree completely, but DP's point is silly because his parents are going to voting for a party that's isn't going to win in there area and UKIP aren't even standing. It'll do squat for the Labour as well.

While UKIP may only be 15% and too spread out, any up swing would cause a big shift because they'll suddenly take more seats

Lets give DP a headache now. In a lot of seats UKIP are 10/1, sounds like rubbish odds right?

But lets not forget UKIP has a 20/1 chance in Heywood and Middleton by-election and came within 617 votes of winning (300 if those 600 switched)

They had to drastically shorten their odds mere days before the by-election.

Who would replace him? The problem the parliamentary labour party has is that their and the normal member's choice didn't win, and if they pull the trigger on Ed, what proof so they have they will win this time?

Because the voting system within the labour party remains unreformed, the problem of union influence (in they eyes of the general electorate) has not gone away.

 

[scorza]

Who would replace him?

Alan Johnson?

 

[Dolph]

Alan Johnson?

Not a bad choice, but Johnson is a blairite which instantly makes him unpopular with the block vote.

He might win, but it would depend who stood against him. Remember, Ed was the unexpected winner last time.

Well the Labour Party need to move beyond Blairite and Brownite positions and quickly, those eras are gone and largely discredited.

 

[McPhee]

The biggest problem with Alan Johnson is Alan Johnson doesn't seem to want the job. He's distanced himself from it since his failed run for deputy leader back in 2006.

That's probably why he's the best person for the job

 

[413x]

Conservative absolutely.
No real other choice. I agree with a fair few ukip policies but wouldn't vote for them
No way ever will I vote for the policies of labour

With all the talk of Question Time… Had just watched it from OnDemand. That Tristram Hunt is some piece of work. What an arrogant, patronising, smarmy individual he is.

Imagine having meetings with him around the table behind closed doors with a group of people. The tone of that man would bring the worst out in you as he smirks like a petty child because he can't come to any common ground. Or be prepared to listen to any point of view.

See the part when the somewhat older eloquent man was going at him…
