Next British General Election (Hypothetical)

[Continential]

Vote.

[KaiserDave]

Labour in England, Scotland, and Wales, SDLP in Northern Ireland

[PSOL]

Labour everywhere but Northern Ireland, but even I know it’s hopeless.

[President Johnson]

Usually I prefer the Liberal Democrats. However, it would depend on the campaign and whether Labor has a serious chance to win. If so, I'd go for Labor as BoJo should be ousted.

[Geoffrey Howe]

Definitely Conservative in Scotland. Undecided for England - depends how Boris continues to rule and how left wing Labour’s platform is, but in the end I’ll probably just hold my nose and vote Tory.

[beesley]

Labour, though I'd vote tactically for the Lib Dems against the Tories and SNP where doable.

[LAKISYLVANIA]

SNP in Scotland, that for sure, and I would vote Yes in the second Indyref if one would come

That being said, for England, i cannot vote for Starmer

In March 2018, a poll showed 77% of Labour members believed the charges of antisemitism to be deliberately exaggerated to undermine the leader or stop criticism of Israel, while 19% said it was a serious issue.

This says enough, the media was just blowing this up and it's a con hit job against Corbyn and the former left.

I don't read a lot about UK news, so I actually don't know what Boris Johnson did so far. The only things i've heard about Boris Johnson were things I agree with or would do the same. His handling of the racism against England football players, his commitment to climate change and things like that are things I absolutely appreciate in Boris Johnson. While about Starmer I mostly hear negative things.

I can't see the difference between those two in key elements, and cannot see how Labour would be an improvement at this moment over the Tories.

However if BoJo was dumped... and if Starmer was dumped and some prominent left-wing figure takes the stage, i would EASILY switch sides.

Right now i really don't know. I honestly don't know. I like "Burning Fire", but it's possible i might not like it in practice, and I assume they don't run in most constituencies.

I like some things what Starmer proposes (based on his wikipedia entry), but I think wikipedia seems quite based in favour of Starmer and against Boris Johnson to be honest (and that's possible if it concerns political content, mostly in the form of what is mentioned and especially what isn't mentioned on the wiki).

I think Boris Johnson so far is someone who will bring stability in the UK and who is just a good leader, in my opinion the best Tory leader of the moment post WW2, and maybe the best right-wing leader the world has ever had.

The thing about Starmer is, that without the Corbyn / antisemitism bullsh**t, he'd easily be the second best Labour leader Labour has had in this century, but i just cannot support him... after all this bullsh**t. He also seems so generic at times. He doesn't motivate. He doesn't inspire, and that's what I want. I want hope.

EDIT: That being said, i leaved the England option blank, because I genuinely don't know and because BoJo isn't on the ballot. I feel hesistant to send whatever conservative to the parliament.

Members of the Labour Party think that people criticising their leader are wrong. Quelle surprise! This poll doesn’t show anything useful either way.

[West_Midlander]

Conservative-Conservative, I suppose. I'm not very familiar with the leaders apart from BoJo who I know some about. Locally, I would consider all candidates and I would strongly consider Reform UK if they were competitive in my constituency.

[Conservatopia]

Labour, though I'd vote tactically for the Lib Dems against the Tories and SNP where doable.

Look I understand you might be frustrated with the current state of politics and that might drive you to unconventional voting behaviour but I really don't think it's helpful to anybody if you were to vote for satirical parties like the Loonies or the Lib Dems.

[Alcibiades]

Whoever out of Labour or the Lib Dems (and I suppose the Greens in a handful of cases) has the best chance of winning in my constituency. Assuming that I am still voting where I am now at the next election, that would most likely be the Lib Dems.

[Dr. MB]

Labour wherever they have like more than a 10% chance. But I’d consider other parties if it was a 1v1 Tories vs LibDems/SNP/Plaid Cymru/whatever race.

In Northern Ireland I’m not really sure. Normally Sinn Féin but abstentionism is a stupid policy.  SDLP i guess or whoever has the best chance to beat the unionists but I’d still probably vote for SF if that applied.

[Del Tachi]

Vote Blue no matter who

[OSR stands with Israel]

Vote Blue no matter who

[S019]

Labour or Lib Dem depending on the constituency in England and Wales, Labour, Lib Dem, or SNP depending on the constituency in Scotland, SDLP or Alliance depending on the constituency in Northern Ireland

[Secretary of State Liberal Hack]

Probably lib dem, but might vote labour if their manifesto is decent and they're competivie.

[America Needs R'hllor]

Labour usually. In races that are Tory vs Lib Dem/other center-left parties, I'd vote for the latter.

[Torrain]

England - Labour. I'm so done with Johnson's administration, between the u-turns and the public health debacle. Unfortunately Starmer's unlikely to replace Johnson without a political miracle, but I'll almost certainly be an England resident at the next election, and I'll be voicing my dissent. I couldn't vote for Corbyn, but I'd be fine with Starmer, or Andy Burnham as PM.

Scotland - I'm opposed to both Scottish Independence and the SNP (their time running Holyrood is a topic for another thread), so most of my political activities are spent trying to vote tactically to minimise the overwhelming advantage that the SNP has. Typically I vote for the primary unionist party in the constituency, which usually means the Liberal Democrats, who locally put up some very decent candidates.

That being said, my first choice (and regional vote in Holyrood elections) typically goes to the Scottish Tories. They're considerably more moderate that the national party, and the best chance of providing a strong primary opposition party in Holyrood, now that Labour has collapsed here.

[Catholics vs. Convicts]

Lib Dem / Labour tactical voter with a preference to Lib Dems in England.

Scottish Lib Dems always.

Sinn Fein in Northern Ireland.

Likely Labour in Wales.

[_.]

Nationally Labour
In Scotland lean SNP but I'll admit I don't have much knowledge of the topic.
