actually, i’ve only ever voted once – just to prove a point.
back in 1997 when everyone knew labour were going to wipe the floor with the tories (especially in gateshead, where they always do) I voted conservative.
does every vote count?

Having never voted for a Conservative in a general election, despite living in True Blue suburbia, I was concerned to observe that I have more sympathy with my MP’s voting record than Dave Blaydon’s…:-(

…of course, the tricky bit is that you can only see the voting record of the incumbent; you’ll have to make your own mind up what the voting record of the people standing against them is likely to be — although my bet would be ‘a tendency to toe the party line’ in most cases…

Other than gay rights I disagree very strongly with what he voted for then, ID cards possibly still has the favour of the majority, but thanks to David Davis hopefully this will get a proper discussion now not just tabloid headlines leading the sheep to believe we are at risk.
