Still unsure of who to vote for.....

Are you in a dilemma over who to vote for in next Thursday's election? Have you only had 3 campaign leaflets through your door, but you have a suspicious feeling there may be more parties with cabdidates available? Have you been turning the TV off at 6.55 to purposely miss those party election broadcasts and now wonder if you are going to waste your vote? Don't worry, help is at hand.... http://www.votematch.co.uk/europe (thanks to http://rothervalley.wordpress.com for the site info) Try this and you can find out the best place to put your X on June 4th ! (apparently I should vote for Libertas, so now will have to do some reading up on them to see if they really do represent my views ) Disclaimer: I do not accept any responsibilty for anyone voting for a party which turns out to do the exact opposite of what they said they would do. This is, after all, the way of political parties in this great country of ours, it seems.

A vote for judge and jury ?

I have been considering the views of The Jury Team party. This is in an effort to find some party that I can vote for whose policies I can believe in. The party leader is Sir Paul Judge. Surely someone with a name like that can make a success of a new political party, especially as he is a "multimillionaire businessman" and intends to "clean up politics". The Guardian thinks that announcing that your leader is a multimillionaire business man is not, in current times, the best way to inspire confidence - and I think I agree on that one ! But I suppose any party needs money to get going - though apart from leafletting and hiring halls to speak to people in, I can't see what else you would need to spend money on.Has anyone any views on The Jury Team? I am still "out" on this one, which is sort of appropriate given the name.I hope I am not going to waste my vote because there is no one worth voting for.... then I would have to keep my views to myself until...
