Even more so if everyone thought like that and didn't bother to vote.

There were a few people there which was a shock as whenever I vote normally I’ve always been the only person in there when I go

It's why this country is ****ed, you can offer up a ****ing essay on all the factual reasons why you shouldn't trust Boris and tory voters will respond with 'Well he likes dogs so he mustn't be that bad so I'm gonna vote for him xx Who needs the NHS anyway? The Tories keep telling me it's broken and I believe them!'

just voted and yes it was busy, cars whizzing in and out and a steady stream at the booths

i told the women about Cherie spoiling her vote and they said they already knew and are waiting for her in England where Cherie votes, despite being an irishman - the woman was furious and called her a "hooligan republican"

I can see my Polling Station from my house (up the street) and it's been absolutely heaving since early this morning, we had to queue to get in for a few mins earlier. It's rammed again now with all the parents picking kids up from school voting on the way home - queues around the building. Probably be the same again after 5/6ish when most finish work.

Usually you wouldn't even know there's a vote on here because it's so quiet, like one or two people every 10 mins if that.

Yeah my polling station was dead but I went at lunchtime, it usually picks up after 5 in my area when all the Toms and Yvonnes come home from work

If you find that personal you need a thicker skin.

Someone left a suspicious device at a polling station in one of the towns nearby, they had to evacuate and carry out a controlled explosion :/

They caught the person responsible

I still dont understand why every is all for labour wanting to borrow 10s of billions of pounds and spend it on unneeded things such as Free Higher Education, Wifi and whatever without ever paying it back.

Also the instant £10 an hour minimum wage for everyone will destroy the economy and will send the cost of living sky high you will be paying £5 for a freddo
