No, I'll never respect the Tory party. I can't see myself ever voting for them unless there was an extraordinary circumstance where I felt I felt there were no other option, which is very unlikely.

I hate what they stand for. They don't benefit the working-class in any way. They don't benefit students in any way.

completely exaggerated , the world is infinitely more complex than that , but it will take students 10 / 15 years to unlearn some of this ...I hope you channel your idealism and hope to can change the world for the better

Well, I'm aware that the world is a very complex place, but I'm speaking on behalf of myself and what the Conservative party have done that affects my life in particular, and why they absolutely do not warrant my individual vote.

I feel like voting against Conservative demonstrates my idealism. I don't want to confine myself or respect a government that doesn't benefit me. In 10/15 years time, who knows, my perception might change (but like I said it's very unlikely). I don't even think a quote from Winston Churchill will make an impact on my political views. Sorry to say.

Voted Green, that said there are some area of Tory politics that I agree with and a lot I don't, I don't think any of the parties are all black and white and as a leader I didn't mind Cameron

I totally agree with you Cherie.

I'm actually going to look into the Green Party's policies and wait to see who their new leader will be, and if I'm satisfied enough I will join the party and volunteer in the run-up for the next election. I've always been stuck between Green and Labour in terms of my support.

Not to worry really considering he endorsed genocide in India.

No offense to Winston Chruchill but there's a reason why the people of their time had issues with him running our country away from WWII, and that's because people like leaders that are tough, but can still be compassionate when need be, which is what the Conservatives lack.
