They're annoying to look at.

They're annoying to listen to.

They're annoying to have around.

Why would anyone vote Conservative?

I truly do not understand.

Unless you are a CEO, a banker or a toff, why would you vote for them?

    • I am most certainly a toff, with overtones of fascism, but i cannot bring myself to vote for davie. as charlie brooker said, "he's like a crap easter egg with no chocolate in the middle."

    • just to add further substance to my post here, i'd like to point out specifically why i would never dream of voting conservative. skip to 40 seconds into this video to watch cameron clap his hands in the most obnoxiously tory fashion i can image... "right!"

      if you ever need a good reason to vote, it's to ensure we don't have to spend the next four years listening to that.

    • So the entire story is that David Cameron is an ugly shit?

      I dunno man, maybe people are gonna vote Tory because their only other choices are to vote for the nobody parties, OR to willingly submit to another New Labour reign... after the last one, you can understand their hesitance. Maybe they believe the lies about tax cuts and kicking the ID card scheme. Maybe their political opinions are more important to them than whether or not you find them annoying or posh or difficult to look at.

      Why would anyone vote Labour? Didn't enough innocent people die the last time around? Why would anyone vote Lib Dem? They can't win. Why would anyone vote BNP/UKIP? Is there that much mercury in the water supply?

      Matter of fuckin' fact, why would anyone vote, period? All you're doing is giving the state permission to brutally ass-fuck you for the next few years. You're practically begging to be abused in the name of democracy. Voters get NO fuckin' sympathy from me. You asked for it, suckers.

      i don't agree at all with your no vote policy.

      not voting for the lib dems because they don't have a chance of winning is pretty pathetic.

      which is it? is it not worth voting? or not worth voting for someone who is going to lose?

      voting for someone you believe in is a powerful thing to do. if you can't find anyone you believe in, you should run yourself. first, you should do your research though.

      I'm certainly not voting, It turns our democracy into a shambles when you can't vote for a party whose policies you don't agree with, that's why there's no point in voting the party whose going to win, or going to lose.
      As a woman it would be an insult to what the suffragettes fought and died for, so that we women could have a say and have a chance to make a change, when we all should know that isn't the case in high politics, and never has been regardless of gender.

      I'd assume, when you've calmed down, that you will be removing your statement(s). Buying a ticket to China, or somewhere similar and living in a state of total denial. If there is no point in voting why even comment?
      Leave the adults to decide on our future and hopefully it will fuel your rant even further. Or why don't you stand forth and spread your gospel to the masses?

      I think it's more of an insult to the suffragettes not to vote, how shameful just to waste their sacrifice. To say women don't have any say in high politics it's quite frankly wrong, there are many high cabinet ranking females. Certainly there is still a large gender gap up there, but not voting is in fact the worst thing you can be doing to do that. You need to get more involved, more active, that's the way to fix these problems. Not voting for a party because 'it is going to lose' is possibly the worst reason I've heard for not voting for quite some time. How do you think parties become larger, pixie dust? The real thing that turns democracies into shambles is the very thing you are doing.
