    Another other here. Plaid Cymru, to be specific. I'd vote Green if I lived in England or the SNP if I was in Scotland.

    Liberal Party is my #1 choice. Green party second.

    If I had to vote in a general election right now I would vote Labour though, the only chance we have of getting rid of the Conservatives and the Lib- Conservatives.

    Labour, they are the only party that really appeal to the working class vote. The minority parties might even more, but they don't stand a chance of getting into parliament, so there is no point voting for them.

    What are parties like the BNP in the poll, but far more popular parties such as the SNP and the Greens and left out? Oh, and I support the SNP.

    Other here. I used to vote for the Liberal Democrats, but I have lost faith in them. So in my recent local elections I decided to vote for the Green Party. They actually have a pretty good manifesto.

    Even though I knew they wouldn't win, I didn't consider it a wasted vote. I mean, if everyone always votes for the big parties because they think nobody else can ever win, nobody else will ever win. And I don't agree with a lot of what the Conservatives stand for, nor with a lot of what Labour stands for.
