I will vote for whoever has the best chance of beating the party of corrupt chancers we currently have in Government.

It is incomprehensible that anyone would act in a way that would keep this bunch of cunts in power.

This is the problem i have with democracy and especially FPTP democratic systems. In effect voting to stop a party is in my opinion negative democracy, i want to vote for something I believe in, rather than something that stops something I don't believe in.

I totally understand why people want to get rid of this awful fucking government, but is replacing it with something you do not believe in just as bad.

Would you vote for Hitler to stop Stalin, yes i know that is an extreme example, but the point stands.

Well I would yeah :))

Yes but you would vote for him even you weren't both statists. Your political engagement doesn't have to be all about electoral politics, you can do other stuff that are more in keeping with your beliefs.

If you want to be idealistic you will always be disappointed.

But why not compromise a little and get something better, rather than throw your toys out of the pram and get the worse of all outcomes?
