Begrudgingly, Labour, seeing as they’re the only realistic party who could unseat this shambles of a government

I'd vote Green too. I don't like Keir. And I've always been a staunch supporter of labour but he is as bad as Boris.

If we still had Corbyn however....

I have literally no one to vote for at this point. I'd probably have to vote SNP purely because Labour has no presence in Scotland and thus failing to vote SNP is effectively handing power to the Tories.

But the SNP handling (or non handling) of the cost of living crisis has driven me away, probably permanently, unless they have something up their sleeve.

Labour won't gain much presence up there if they don't get votes! Catch 21!

I know Scotland is "not" part of England so why would I, but I've heard almost nothing positive about Sturgeon, only the odd complaint. But obviously, the internet sucks - is she okay, by and large?

This.

Otherwise it'd be the Green Party.

Suprised so many people want to vote for the greens when their whole policy is that they don't care about the people

The Greens should be my default, but ... They're idiots leastways, their policies are stupid.

They have no right to call themselves green when they support the burning of trees for energy over nuclear power.

Don't like the Labour leader atm. But can't risk voting any other way.

Tory.
Simply because I vote for our local candidate.
He has been a good MP for us.

Why are there 91 uncontested seats on May 5th so they all get automatically election.

Sounds kinda suspicious

Labour.

In this now absurd electoral system we have.
If anyone doesn't want this shambles of a government to be returned.
There is under this outdated voting system, there is only one party that can realistically beat these Cons.
That is Labour.
Not voting, or voting for any other party is only going to ensure a kind of electoral victory for the Cons.

Very sad but that's the fact of how our voting system works.
In Scotland however, a vote for the SNP is a good and strong anti Con vote too.

IMO still the only realistic alternative government is a Labour/SNP coalition but despite everything, I *still* don't see either of them going for it. Another bugbear I have with SNP as of late. Ideology coming ahead of what's best for the average voter (something that needs desperate attention right now). Scotland would be in a very strong position for achieving the best possible outcomes for people in Scotland if they had a Labour coalition in London alongside a good result in Scottish elections. But the overwhelming SNP policy of "we want nuffin to do wif 'em!" gets in the way massively.
