I’m not a Liberal Democrat voter, I’ve voted Labour other than in two elections (one general and one local).
When I was 18ish I voted Conservative in a general election because my Mum voted Conservative and although I didn’t have a great deal of money back then I expected I would one day and wanted to keep as much of it as possible :-) In other words I didn’t have a CLUE what I was doing!
I’ve voted Liberal Democrat tactically once, lived in an area where Labour had no chance of winning.
I see Labour as the best of a bad lot and I include all political parties as a bad lot. Actually maybe I wouldn’t include the Green party as a bad lot, but they are so deluded and unrealistic in their goals (maybe 500+ year from now) it’s quite scary. The Green’s would have the world starving to save animals, no thanks, humans always come first in my book.
My political views are all over the middle ground (mostly anyway). I want the best parts of socialism and the best parts of capitalism, there’s a happy medium somewhere.
