I’d probably vote LibDem as they have the best hope of beating the Tories here.

None of them.

Relying on the current Government being rubbish as the main reason for voting Labour isn’t a good enough. I’m afraid Labour doesn’t seem to have any positive strategy for government either.

Still too internally focused and doesn’t seem to realise that the majority of people aren’t party activists of any persuasion. Just people who want to get on with their lives and have a government that enables them to do that.

So nobody. Don’t want any of them. I could write why not the other parties but I’m guessing it’s the vote for Labour angle you’re really interested in.

I’m in a marginal. The Tory candidate beat our sitting Labour MP last time, his majority is 4,000. I’m a Labour voter and in this constituency couldn’t vote anything else.
I’d vote LibDem in a marginal Tory-liberal constituency. We need the tories out. Truss as PM - heaven help us

I would have to go Lib Dem

Just that. I can only imagine that, if Truss carries out her promises to give tax cuts to the rich and ignore those struggling, the Labour party's lead would increase.

If she has been saying this to gain power, and we have another liar in office, I don't know how usually Tory voters will react. They seem to accept the most outrageous of lies so they may stick with her. There still seems to be a tranche of Trumpian style supporters sticking to Johnson; they may transfer allegiance (and all common sense) to Truss.
