Conservative.
Polling station was full of old dodders stood around chirping off about something or other. Couldn't wait to get out of there
That's the conservative core vote you're talking about there. You should feel a brotherly bond

Labour, first time ever, I've always voted Conservative
I'm not sure what the rules are regarding ex-pats and voting in general elections. But imo, as long as they have property in the UK/paying taxes, then they should have the right to vote.
No property/taxes paid in the UK, then i'm sorry regardless of whether you're a UK citizen or not, you're not contributing to the UK economy so you shouldn't get a say-so in how the money is spent.
Trying. not. to. laugh.

How come the switch if you don't mind me asking?.
You voted UKIP, trust me we are all laughing.

Labour, here. No queues, but a steady stream of people. It's sunshine and showers here so I think the voters will wax and wain as they dodge the showers.
+1000
Why the change of heart?

Postal vote didn't arrive, polling station told me I can't vote.
What an absolute farce.
What an absolute farce.
If you've and citizen and been UK resident in the last 15 years you can vote.
I'm not sure where this idea of having to contribute to the economy to get a vote idea comes from. There's a ****load of people in the UK making a much lower net contribution to the UK economy than me, why should they get to vote?!

The polls can get it wrong, they also didn't get right on the Scottish independent vote either so maybe this election won't be as close as every body thinks. There's still a number of people who haven't made up their minds (which should suit the incumbent party) who could have a part to play in this yet.
At work at the moment, will vote latter.

This poll doesn't fit my voting options, I can have two selections on one paper and one on another so I may have voted for up to three different parties.
Andi.
Andi.
do that mean that nobody on benefits should get a vote either?
Slippery slope.
Plus the Ex pats have contributed for decades, why do they not get a vote in your system but an 18 year old who has never had a job does? :S
Who were you planning to vote for?
Call the election office, they may not be able to go anything about it but it's worth a shot. The poll station staff won't let you vote as you won't be on their list of in person voters.

Annoyingly as I wanted to retain the Labour councilor for my Borough I had to vote Labour, even though I do not what Eddie as PM.
