Final quadrant of our European tour, which didn't have much success, but hey, some are too busy in their county-level politics to bother looking overseas... Wink

Denmark : would be highly divided between F (SF) and N (Movement against EU). For EP elections, maybe SF, but not sure.
Estonia : possibly Tarand, otherwise SDE
Finland : Vas
Ireland : Sinn Féin
Latvia : Harmony Centre
Lithuania : LSDP
Sweden : V
United Kingdom : England : small constituency : Labour ; large constituency : Greens ; Wales : Plaid Cymru ; Scotland : SNP (I think SSP doesn't run) ; Ulster: Sinn Féin.

Except... Sibboleth, what should I vote ?

Denmark: Flip between Social Democrats and Social Liberals. Probably the former though.

Estonia: Social Democrats, but I'd vote Centrists in a general election.

Finland: I guess the Green League, to be frank.

Ireland: This is a hard one. Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael are basically patronage parties with no real reason to exist, Irish Labour is effectively useless, Sinn Fein are dodgy, the Greens are dead. Sad I'd go Independent.

Latvia: Harmony Centre (Latvia has really cute names for its parties. It's adorable.)

Lithuania: The Way of Courage. I'm all for crazy scrappy new parties with crazy names.

Sweden: Eh, Green party I guess.

UK: I am going to vote Labour (I'm in Yorkshire and Humberside constituency). I would vote Green or Health Concern if it was a national list

Northern Ireland: Alliance or SDLP. Probably the former.

By this do you mean Labour in general or just individual candidates like Tony Benn? [/list]

      I mean Labour in general.

      In that case, why not for the Democrats in the US?

      Interesting Picks, but NI and Finland seem way out of place. Why not the SDLP or Finnish SDP?
