Brexit Party is the only party I like the look of but I'm not convinced by them at all

The 4 other parties are a disgrace tbh

I intend to vote because I have a voice and it's pointless to have views yet not vote at all, but at the same time I dont feel like voting for any party.

Brexit Party is just a publicity stunt aimed at reviving the media's interest in Farage. A vote for them is a vote wasted, plus judging from their MPs thus far, you'll be hard pressed to find one that isn't a rampaging bigot.

That's what I mean I believe in Brexit but I dont want to vote for a party that's gonna be gone within a year

I'll also have to see who is actually running for it yet then I'll make a decision but is it hard for us to have a decent MP in the country for once

Read the manifestos, and go with the ones who are speaking for you the most.

It's proportional representation you don't get wasted votes

They almost certainly will be. As soon as Farage gets a sniff of a better offer, he'll be gone until it blows up in his face and everyone else in the party is either past it politicians or extremists that will be shamed and quietly fade away as quickly as they came to prominence. It's all a stunt and nothing more.

Judging from who is in the party, it's going to be grim if you vote for them. They're all a bunch of snake oil salesmen and you won't get anyone decent in that party.

Voting for a publicity stunt is a waste regardless of how the votes are counted.

if you genuinely want brexit, then the only logical thing to do is not vote. Not voting is the biggest message that can be delivered. Voting for the brexit party makes no sense

Think I’ll vote for SNP but I’ll need to look into who’s running a bit more

This. As a Lib Dem member I voted for my candidates in Yorkshire but I'm slightly tempted to vote Greens. They have some amazing activists in Yorkshire.

Probably best to play it safe and go for the Tories. The others are basically a throwaway vote, and I don't want to indirectly contribute to Labour getting a seat.

Basically telling them that they can ignore our vote and not recieve any consequences for doing so.

Almost 3 years since we voted out, if they wanted to, we could have left on day 1.

It's proportional representation, if Brexit Party/Lib Dems/Greens/Labour/Tories etc get 50% of the vote in your region they'll get around 50% of seats and that's the thing.

Vote freely!

Do UK have election machines?

For candidate comparison?

If you don't like any of the candidates, spoil your ballot. At least that way you can make more of an impact than just staying at home

I'll probably go with Lib Dems, if we actually stay in the EU somehow, it'd be nice to have cooprative MEPs rather than people like Farage who throw spanners into proceedings

No one seems to know what they're doing anyway.
I'm a Labour supporter so will vote Labour even in these elections that should never be taking place.

I'd never ever though trust the Lib Dems, I'd rather vote Conservative than Lib Dem.
I could never ever support a Party led by Farage.

In Scotland SNP are a better choice, if I lived there, they'd be my Party.
