I don't vote, they are all pricks  3:)

You must vote, its important, or at least spoil your vote to show you are unhappy

Tbf this has the same effect as not voting. It does nothing. It's all a farce anyway, whether you vote left wing or right wing, you're still voting for the same bird. None of them ever do anything positive for us regular working folk. Labour ease the burden of the less well off a little by borrowing heavily. Conservatives then come in and stick us in austerity measures in order to pay back the debt that labour built. And round and round it goes.

I will be voting, just unsure as to who I would vote for at this moment in time.

@Amy  @Dee

Trump has already said that he wants the NHS on the table as part of a trade deal with UK. Everyone's situation is different but for me personally a lot of my family have serious long term illnesses and they heavily rely on the NHS, they simply couldn't get treatment if the NHS is privatised. And even if they don't privatise it, the Conservative government has crippled it by under funding it the last 10 years or so. Looking at how bad the American healthcare system is, paying stupid prices like hundreds or a thousand pounds to get an ambulance is just terrifying.

The next few weeks will be interesting to say the least  :P

Tories have adamantly stated the NHS is off the table. Could you imagine the uproar if it wasn't? Although privatisation of the NHS has been ongoing for years now, I highly doubt our government is going to sell the NHS. I really hope they don't, if they did, they would never be in power again, it would be the end of them. The cuts I agree have been awful, all thanks to the Labour party which left this country in terrible debt and with no money. Liam Byrne's note of "there's no money left" made that fact legendary.

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2010/may/17/liam-byrne-note-successor?fbclid=IwAR0T5LCPcByq-nDwHt1cIdbH99-Uf6cYftKd7J5g0nDS_5WPJ6PRug9Ch6U

But there was also a global economic crisis as well, which made matters worse.

I am really unsure on this election. The way I see it is,

Conservative want to follow through on the referendum we had 4 years ago. Delivering what people in a democratic society voted for.
Labour continues to block what people voted for (even though labour are all about 'what people want') and is now offering a 2nd referendum. Honestly, if people still vote leave, what a slap in the face for him that would be.
Lib dem want to cancel brexit all together, which is even more anti-democratic.

So basically, if people want to leave vote conservative, if you want to remain vote lib dem. Labour just want round 2  #-o

It wouldn't affect my job as we're in railway maintenance, the nationalisation will be for the operators. But I don't see how they can do it, when a lot of the contracts are in place for the next 10 years.

Absolutely, Boris is extremely dodgy behind his quirky charisma. In his short stint as Prime Minister he has told numerous lies, the most infamous was when he was found to have lied to the queen. If he's prepared to lie to her, he'll lie to anyone.

Deputy leader for Labour stepped down recently and Ian Austin an ex Labour MP tells reporters Corbyn is not fit to run the country. He gets quite emotional, here's the link  https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1201213/general-election-ian-austin-jeremy-corbyn-labour-party-gordon-brown-boris-johnson

I'm glad about that, slowly the old Labour who've tried to undermine Corbyn are being flushed out and better candidates who share Corbyns vision can replace them. He won't be missed in the long run, he was a weasel  XD
