General Election: Who the hell am I going to vote for???

Menzies Campbell was our MP from 1987. He has just retired. On the rare occassion I or anybody I know had reason to contact him we ALWAYS got a prompt personal reply and he was highly respected in these parts. I voted for him in the past not necessarily because he was a Lib Dem. He'll be sorely missed and with his retiral we are expecting a SNP gain here despite the SNP candidate being the only candidate that doesn't live anywhere near the constituancy which I think is important when considering who to vote for if you care about local issues rather than just what goes on at Westminster or in the pretendy Scottish Parliament.

 

Same, evey day we get all 4 parts leaflets (not sundays)

Snap, Miss Jiff and me had the same, lovely personal letter, but i still won't be voting as none of the leaders of any party have knocked on my door for a chat without media

 

I have replied to the above post twice now and my posts have vanished ???

Can anyone explain why ?

 

It's sunday, have another go

 

I had a funny experience last night.
The UKIP candidate () knocked on my door and when I answered it he just looked at me. Thing is I have some Italian blood so I colour up quite quickly with any sun, I'm going through a can't be assed to shave phase and to finish the job off I was wearing a top that was a gift from my friend after his last trip to Pakistan! So as he tried to work out if I was one of those nasty immigrant types I just looked him in the eye and said "Yeah, suicide bomber in training"!
He huffed off

 

Nope. But fear not, if you were on the naughty step and they had been removed you would have got a PM so it must be a glitch.

 

So is one of my son's. But, he never mentioned it ... so, when we went to visit him last month he opened the door with a full beard. Fair took my breath away (doesn't even suit him!). Trouble is, my mouth engaged before my brain and all that came out was: "Have you turned Muslim?" (I actually thought that was quite tactful really - you never know with students )
Silly billy got the hump over that

 

I've not had a single visit from any canvassers and only two leaflets through the door - one for labour and one for lib dems. It's a labour safe seat (lib dems were closest last time) so maybe the other parties can't be bothered. As for some of our candidates, they live all over the shop, including one who lives in Neath (a three and a half hour drive away)

 

I had a similar thing the other day when I called in on one of my "Muslim Bro's. I was greeted with the full Salam followed by "so you've decided to join us then!".

 

I`d like to wind a canvasser up too. Last time the jehovas witnesses knocked the door I kept chatting for 45 mins about how my god and their god were the same and were indeed aliens.
Funnily enough theyve never come back since

 

I'm fed up of them knocking on the door, every day, its doing my head in UKIP knocked last night just has we sat down for dinner. I asked him if he could run, why he replied because if you don't get of my property I will let my dogs out, he left
No matter who gets in they all tell lies to get your vote

 

I think there is no chance my post was moderated as there was absolutely nothing contentious or offensive. Quite the contrary .

 

Then a glitch it is then
