Re: UKIP win a seat.

I am in that older generation bracket....but I have never voted other than with my head...carefully considering the candidate and what they can do for the good of the country in their political party setting.
I listen to the information, I read information, I sift out what I think is the wheat from the chaff...then I decide.
I think this might be because my parents were not 'dyed in the wool' supporters of any particular political party.
I cannot vote with my heart...only with my head.

Re: UKIP win a seat.

In my mind Margaret UKIP will never get in power, But importantly the only way yeh will get these MPs of the big 2 to listen to the people, is if UKIP manage to scare em enough, They certainly will not change fer our benefit. Thats what i regard as voting wi my head.

Well Cashy, all power to,your elbow.
If the polls are to be believed, then UKIP will force labour into third place......and will be in a position to form a coalition.
The problem with polls are that people frequently do not tell the truth.....and people change their minds.....sometimes waiting until they enter the polling booth to decide which way to vote.
Another problem with polls is that they only canvas a small section of the population.
