Brexit if Farage is leading it. UKIP otherwise.

LibDem, Green, SNP, or Plaid.... whichever of these has the best shot at winning the seat in the respective constituency.

If neither of these parties has a chance and voting Labour is the only way from preventing a Tory MP, I'd vote Labour.

Labor. I’m not the biggest Corbyn fan but there’s no real viable alternative and their policies are good, even if somewhat left of me.

In marginal seats: Reluctantly Conservatives

In safe seats: Monster Raving Looney or whatever meme party is running, that would probably do a better job running the country than the major parties would.

In my seat: Labour because I don't like my local Conservative MP, not that it matters, the seat is safe.

1. Labour
2. Green Party of England & Wales
3. Plaid Cymru

SNP has left a bad taste in my mouth since the head’s arrest and I’ve already voiced my opinion on the rest clear enough.

Still Labour, though in practice my hypothetical (or perhaps not hypothetical depending on when its held) would be anti-Tory depending on what seat I was living in.

Labour for a couple of years.

Yes, Corbyn is a antisemite, but the Tories need to change post-May.

Let Corbyn be there for 3 years until a recession hits Britain and he is forced out.

For anyone who doesn't know what the 'Independent Group' is.  Appropriately enough, this is an article from the Independent newspaper:

The Independent Group: What are the views and policies of the breakaway MPs?

If I'm entirely honest; the Labour Party recently have not helped their cause a lot.  The anti-semitism thing has always troubled me a lot and the Brexit stuff really has not made me like them.  In a safe Labour seat I'd consider who my candidate is and whether I feel that they meet my values and if not I am open to voting for the Greens or a fringe left wing party to indicate a protest against them.

However in a marginal seat I'd have to vote Labour: the policies of the Conservative Party would be incredibly harmful to the vast majority of people in this country; and their approach to Brexit and their overall competence shows that they need to be thrown out of office right now.  Luckily I'm registered in a very close SNP/Tory marginal seat and while I don't like the SNP that one is something that at this point is a little less troubling than Labour.  I cannot allow an increasingly close-minded, exclusionary, xenophobic party to remain in office and with all of the significant failings that Labour currently have, they would be significantly better in government than the Conservative Party are.
