I have always voted Conservative ever since I reached the appropriate age.  Never touched Labour as I have always seen them as incompetent, ever since I attained majority in 1968.

Now, it is nothing other than Reform UK.  Never any other party.  I live in hope that they will be elected in three years (or sooner), and that there will still be a country left to restore.

A saviour. Indeed it wasn't the LibDems it was the Liberal party. Thank you. I can now be content knowing that I have never voted LibDem. Not that I expect the Liberals were any better. It was of course a protest vote at my disgust with the Tories at the time. Fortunate indeed that we had Reform last time around or I'd have had to be content with a spoiled ballot.

Surely not! You couldn't have voted lib dem in 1974.

Mr M went to Sheffield must be good 🙂

Yep, Sheffield has a very good reputation for engineering.   Best of luck to him 🙂

She told Ethel not to get any ideas
He was always like that when he'd had a few beers
She dragged him off home
So poor Ethel's alone
At a pinch there was Joe but he has jug ears

Ethel was desperate and gave Joe a wink
She was hoping he'd maybe buy her a drink
