  1. Full Brexit with "no EU deal" on the 29th March.

  2. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a general election and new negotiations.

  3. Request Extension to article 50 to allow cross party talks and a new deal to be put to EU.

  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. No, he lives in a safe Conservative seat.

    Does it make a difference to the answer? Ineligible votes are all the rage these days.
     
  2. My advice would be none of the above then.
     
  3. For every 10 years older a voter is, their chance of voting Tory increases by around nine points and the chance of them voting Labour decreases by nine points. The tipping point, that is the age at which a voter is more likely to have voted Conservative than Labour, is now 47 – up from 34 at the start of the campaign.

  4. Is that an option? Or is it just advice?
     
  5. I think its likely to be a coalition. I expect there to be coalitions for the indefinite future, during which time FPTP will be replaced with PR. The Tories aren't especially popular. They have no one to form a coalition with. Labour will get support from other parties if necessary.

    I also think that people are aware that ten years of cuts haven't helped anything except the rich get richer. Did you see the report today that shows private operations in the NHS have trebled to 600,000+ in the last few years?

    Unless you are very wealthy, voting Tory is voting yourself a cut in life style, worse roads, more crime, less doctors, more homeless, worse justice system and for what?

  6. More evidence, if needed, of the inexorable infantilisation of the electorate.
     
  7. The UK political elite could not be happier with FPTP. It is their desired system for concentrating power in the hands of the few.

    You won't see PR or run-off voting for that matter, unless it is imposed at gunpoint by an angry populace. IOW it's ever gonna happen, as you geniuses disarmed yourselves after the First World War. Idjits.
     
  8. That's interesting but it's missing the Brexit Party .

  9. the torys where in power from 79. since 2007 when a certain party took over we are now at a 40odd year low in crime, we are the 3rd most productive area in the UK after London and S/E. no mean fete when the rUK business model is based on banking and services and centralised in London. exports have boomed up here since the SNP started rebuilding the brand. our issues are mostly due to giving 1 out of every two we make to subsidise tory (red and blue) decisions to secure the majority of votes in the south. it's not just about where we are, it's as much to do with how far we have come.

  13. That last paragraph is interesting, perhaps unless you are very rich or very poor it makes no difference who is in power

  14. LOL.

    "I don't want to be in a war."
    Do I:
    Disarm myself?
    Arm myself to the nines?

    Show your workings with your answer.
     
  15. My 18 year old daughter tells me that from her sources none of them intend to vote.
     
  16. This seems to be the case.
