Labour, albeit with a wish for a change in leadership. Wouldn't want to back a centre-right party like the SNP.

I thought the SNP was center-left?

Their ideology is Scottish independence so they go with the winds. Sturgeon is a member of the party's left when Scottish independence was all about STANDING AGAINST TORY AUSTERITY; Salmon was a member of the right when becoming an Ireland-with-oil-esque tax haven was in vogue. As the political winds turn, they will pick up another leader with a fish-themed name who will subscribe to whatever ideology is popular at that current minute. Maybe First Minister Pilchard will strike a case for a business friendly alternative to Comrade Corbyn's People's Republic of the British Isles, or something.

I would vote for some virtual unknown if the Tory and UKIP candidates are pro-abortion (at least on whatever abortion-related issue is being fought in UK right now).

There are actually a decent few "pro-life" abortion people in Labour - normally old Catholic mainstays. Not that the issue comes up very much outside the spooky province.

I'm not going to vote for the international branch of Jill Stein's party either.

This seems to be like refusing to vote for Labour because they were in SI with Mubarak's party.
