    It's Jo for me of course but who will you vote for?

    For me there are other more important issues other than Brexit. I will wait for the manifesto to appear then choose who to vote for. I hope that during any election campaign that the vying parties stick to what they are planning to do rather than just slag off their opponents, but I am not really hopeful of that happening.

    Living where I do, it just doesn't matter who you vote for because, since 1983 when the constituency was re-established, the Labour candidate has always won with majorities well over 10,000+

    I'll be voting for Nigel (Evans). He's a Tory who believes in democracy, and that in a democracy the result of a referendum should be honoured. Pointless voting for anyone else in the Ribble Valley anyway, the Tory always wins, and I can't imagine Sir Nigel of Farage standing a candidate against him, no point, he's a Brexiteer through and through, sound as a pound is our Nigel.

    I'm voting for none of the self interested, loathsome, money sucking creatures. No point in voting whatsoever, because the House of Commons have displayed a callous disregard for democracy.

    Most MPs have displayed a callous disregard for democracy and the views and wishes of the electorate BT, but not all of them. Now the public get their chance to remove from Psrliament those who treated the voters with contempt. My MP behaved decently and honourably and fought consistently to uphold the result of the referendum, and I would vote for him having total disregard for whichever party he represented. Imo this election is not about a right/left split, it's not about party politics, it's about salvaging something of our democracy from the wreckage left after the Remoaner political class, the Speaker, the Judiciary and the BBC, the national broadcaster, set about it with a wrecking ball, all of them utterly convinced that it's all about them, not us. Hopefully it will survive, but it won't be thanks to the likes of our good friend 59/60 and his ilk, and it will be a close run thing.

    Couldn’t agree more Sinkov. And for those who are unsure whether to vote can I just remind them that people died at Peterloo and elsewhere to win them the vote. The process has not stopped and we must go on to ensure that electoral reform will continue including scrapping First Past the Post so that everyone’s vote will count.

    Nice reply Sinkov!

    So you would choose Boris's BRINO over Nigel's (Farage) proper Brexit?

    I'm surprised.
