I make a point NOT to vote..

If my hand was forced though ... labour.


Thats bad...People have died to earn others the right to vote. You should have voted Labour if that was your preference.

No, it's not bad at all, I never asked them to die for my right to vote.

I try to shun anything to do with politics out of my life (hard as it may seem), I don't mind talking about it every now though ..

Edit - though like I said, if my hand was forced Labour, because I like conservatives the least, only because of david cameron ... I can't stand that man.

Just as a matter of interest why did you choose the Green party and UKIP to fill the last two slots? I very much doubt they will be the 4th and 5th most popular parties...

who do you think will be 4th and 5th?

based on last time, I should have put the SNP for the 5th option I guess, oh well.

11pm is your closing time?

Dang.

That has to suck for your election workers. In America, we had our election on Tuesday for the primaries. It lasted from 6:30am to 7:30pm....Not 11pm like you crazy Brits. I worked the polls that day, and it was hard enough putting in 15 hours!



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

My polling station is only open until 10pm I believe; in fact, I haven't heard of any open until 11pm.
