    I've just clicked on to the number of votes for each party, and it reveals exactly who voted for each party. LOL

    Don't think it matters in the grand scheme of things who we vote for in Barnsley - in my constituency we got a candidate and subsequently an MP foisted on us by a National Executive who wanted a woman whether or not she was the best option and secondly someone who apparently was the Mistress of a senior party member.

    Currently begrudgingly reading nick cleggs biography on holiday in Indonesia and finding it quite refreshing despite some obvious naivety.

    Only a third in but has some interesting points re populist politics, the shift from centrism and how smaller coalition partners get hammered in the next election after power sharing.

    Though to be fair, my personal immediate concerns are more with a pending volcanic eruption of Mount Agung and being around 50-60 miles away tomorrow in Lombok (if flights allow).

    Though ironically still probably less devastating than a right wing hard brexit party

    I thought this was an anonymous poll. Bit disappointing it's not as I prefer not to reveal my political colours on here.

    Without reading each manifesto and analysing the points within you may as well pin the tail on the donkey

    Depressing scenario at the moment, IMHO we would be seriously fked ( but from different directions) if either of the two main parties got in and there's no real viable alternative, so..........................HELP

    Not only would vote Labour but will be out campaigning for a Labour victory.

    Only one of those 9 votes for Tory surprises me...
