    There are so many in that particular category, tysonstorm. :o

    Look on the bright side, the 2013 & 2014 local elections and the 2014 Euro elections will be wonderful opportunities to give them one hell of a kicking. :)

    There's also the category of I voted for the government and although I do not regret my vote I'm not voting for them next time.

    Will vote Labour next time if Cruddas comes up with some decent policies in his review and they start taking immigration and housing seriously and stop taking their core vote for granted.

    I voted Labour because my MP is busy, visible, and impressive.
    But the departure from Uk politics of David Miliband has caused me to realise that if yougov were to ring me and ask:
    "Who would you choose to be the Prime Minister in 2015?"......I currently have no answer to this question.

    Difficult one. I voted Lib Dem and I will vote Lib Dem again but this is because the constituency MP is honest and local and does a lot of good work. It helps he didn't support the coalition. I dislike what the Lib Dems have done but not as much as I despise and detest the Conservatives. I believe that Labour has the better social and economic policies but my heart lies with the greens.

    Interestingly, so far, nearly as many FM's voted Lib Dem as voted for the other two parties combined. Not seen a DS poll come up with those sort of results before...

    How many FM's have moved since the last election though?

    Last time I was in a safe Lib Dems seat and voted Lib Dem. Next time I will also tactically vote against the Tories but probably Labour as they are likely to be the stronger party where I live.

    I voted Labour because we have an excellent Labour MP, shame I can't say the same for our local Labour Councillor who I don't and won't vote for, unless they get a new one then I might depending on who it is.

    Actually it looks more like the disgruntled ex Lib Dem voters have put in an early appearance to voice their disgruntlement! :D

    I voted Lib Dem to see if they'd try and get a PR voting referendum. We got one! It was a bit crap (AV) and didn't get voted in, but I had no other expectations of them. Didn't even know there was a tuition fees pledge until all the hoo- ha.

    The local MP will remain the red faced Tory who's been there for years, so it doesn't matter who I vote for next.

    I voted Labour to keep the Tories out. I have not changed my opinion of Tory governments and the Lib Dems have been useless in tempering the most divisive and misery making policies the Tories can devise.

    I will vote Labour again in 2015 and hope for a Labour majority government or Labour plus ANY other party or combination of parties, in order to send the Tories back to the opposition benches.

    no choice for 'i voted green and am happy with my vote'

    if it actually mattered in my constituancy i'd have voted labour
    but only cause they're marginally the least worse IMO
    and as a right of centre party they in no way represent my political views

    I voted Conservative and been more than happy with my vote. Cameron has exceeded my expectations.
