Yes and No...
No - because none of the candidates would have made any difference.
Yes - because at least the racist scum from the BNP were kept in check - although I have to admit to being highly ashamed of Rotherham right now!
Why even bother to vote? It's not like it makes a difference.
Labour and Conservative are pretty much the same thing these days and as for the other one - what are they called again? Ad Lib or something?
about time that stupid scot git got what was coming to him, he was c==p as chancellor and is even worse as PM. the whole bunch of them are muppets who have no idea what the country needs. id vote for anyone but labour
My area has been Conservative since befoe I was born and there doesn't seem to be much point votng as Labour especially never have any substantial vote.
Because the area is very rich, everybody votes for the tories. We should tax the rich more and give the poor more to give them a hand.
Everybody slags off the party that's in power because they have all of the decisions. The way to think about it is, "who would make less mistakes?"
All parties make mistakes when they are in power, so you have to think about it realistically.
The national trend was that Labour lost seats but here they gained - talk about a red badge and a dead donkey!!!!
