In my area, which was always predominantly Conservative territory, I and others used to vote Lib Dem as a protest vote or possibly tactical voting. There was no way we could have got a Labour MP, who we may have wanted to vote for, so it would have been a wasted vote.
With the current situation and no possibility of registering a ‘No’ vote and don’t find not voting an acceptable option (since it is my right to complain about who gets in) I think a ‘hung parliament is a perfect solution. That way we get many more points of view,should lead to more possibility of getting things right , gives us all a breathing space, whilst the powers that be,sort themselves out, get their act in order and decide what it is they do actually believe in.
A campaign starting now for a hung parliament, would be an excellent strategy. Just don’t vote for Labour or Conservatives, Make sure you use your vote, until we can get an option on the ballot paper for either a straight ‘no’ vote or ‘none of the above’.We can send a loud and clear message about how disillusioned we are with British politics, politicians and the archaic political system we have.
Of course I say ‘we’ speaking for myself and others I know.
I fully accept that there are those with completely opposing POV and respect that.
