Probably, but with the biggest sense of apathy I've felt in any election before.
Still haven't made my mind up whether to spoil my ballot of just vote Greens, for a laugh.
If the local Lib Dem candidate for our ward had made even something of an effort to tell us about who he is and his policies then I might have been more inclined to vote for him, even if it was just a "not Tory" vote. But instead, it seems he's more interested in simultaneously running for MP in East Ham:

Lib Dems came second here in 2013, about 23% to the Tory party's 40%. Turnout of about 35%.Comment

I don't see why EU citizens should have a vote on UK elections. Only British subjects should vote in UK elections.Originally posted by Eirikur View PostFor many EU citizens probably the last time they are allowed to vote in the UK
I've already voted."The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." CiceroComment

I don't see why British subjects should have a vote in UK elections. Elections should be for the people that are affected; i.e. the people that live here permanently, regardless of what their passport says.Originally posted by Waldorf View PostI don't see why EU citizens should have a vote on UK elections.

We currently have a UKIP councillor who has actually got off his arse and made a bit of a difference to some local projects so he's getting my vote....my quagmire of greed....my cesspit of laziness and unfairness....all I am doing is sticking two fingers up at nurses, doctors and other hard working employed professionals...
