Isabelle Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I'm still not decided on who to vote for in the election. I'm struggling to find any information on each party's policies which isn't biased. All the leaders seem to do is criticise each other and what the previous opposing parties have done in the past. I just want someone to say 'We are X, our policies are X, Y & Z, and this is how we will achieve it', instead of wasting time (and money) just trying to make the opposition look bad. I want to make an informed decision, but it puts me off making a decision at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 If you consider yourself an employee, in other words, you work for someone else, and/or you rent your house/flat, and rely on the NHS, then vote Labour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truman Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 If you consider yourself an employee, in other words, you work for someone else, and/or you rent your house/flat, and rely on the NHS, then vote Labour. That's a very simplistic view.....so if I'm self employed and own my own home I shouldn't vote Labour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing stopping those people voting for Labour if they wish, but I would advise those who I described to vote for Labour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1976 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 If you consider yourself an employee, in other words, you work for someone else, and/or you rent your house/flat, and rely on the NHS, then vote Labour. Doesn't fit for me, and I fill all those criteria. I will be far worse off if I vote labour. To the OP, there are numerous 'who should I vote for' sites, where you can find the most suitable party based on the policies they stand for. I'd suggest one of those, rather than the rabid growlings of the over keen for each party on here. Just google 'who should I vote for policies' and you'll find something. Good luck.

nickycheese Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 To answer the original post - the 'I' newspaper have a 'matrix' of where each party stands on a range of topics. Here: https://inews.co.uk/?s=i%E2%80%99s+General+Election+matrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to decide, if you would prefer either Teresa May or Jeremy Corbyn to be Prime Minister on Friday. If you haven't decided by now, then perhaps it is best you don't make a decision at all.

To answer the OP, try some of the voting quiz websites: https://uk.isidewith.com/political-quiz http://www.whoshouldyouvotefor.com/ Be warned they are far from perfect but should at least give you a vague idea of who mostly aligns with your views. ---------- Post added 07-06-2017 at 14:11 ---------- You are not going to find unbiased information courtesy of any of the parties.

Why would you say that? Isabelle is clearly trying to do research into the PARTIES (not the leaders) policies to make the best informed choice. Vote for policies not personalities as the PM can change very very quickly within the party. If TM doesn't increase her majority (not looking likely by the polls) I'd expect her to be under considerable pressure to resign. No-one knows who'd be the next PM after her so voting for her is a bit daft when you could end up with Boris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
