Jeremy Corbyn on his bike before Theresa May calls snap general election

I want to vote for Corbyn, however I think his views are potentially too damaging for the UK (especially at this moment in time). In particular he's comes across as just a bit too extreme for me, the idea of taking the wealth from the richest is heartwarming, but the reality is that the richest will just leave the UK, so the worrying line will be to tax those 'a bit' richer than you (but no where near the top richest) as when it comes down to it he can't tax the shit out of the 0.1%'ers so he'll take it off the next 19.9%'ers.. if he takes from 'enterprise' they'll leave, so where does he go from there... I like that he stands for being 'anti establishment', that he enjoys riding his bike, but I don't like the fact that he's a republican. My views are confused, I agree, however my vote will go elsewhere.

I'm can't vote for Jimmy Krankie as I'm not in Scotland, I'd be very upset if the UK lost Scotland, I might never buy another Tunnocks again!*

Green, isn't it that Austrailian lady heading up the greens? We can't have a colonial in charge! In seriousness, I've tried really hard to like the greens in the past, but whenever I read what they are about  I'm like, yes, yes, yes, tick tick tick big tick, OH MY GOD NO WHAT ARE YOU THINKING! Same position as Corbyn for me they are just a step or two too radical in some directions.

I really don't like the look of May, she's just Emperor Palpatine in heels, she's been 'gifted' the job and I can't think she'd have made PM any other way. However a part of me sort of wants her to win, all the actual politics around her since she came to office has been really 'tight' everyones singing from the same hymn sheet, any announcements are made short and direct and that's all is being said... this is how I'd run any annoucements and it  because anything else will make our country look more confused and weak than it already does. Writing this I've got this image of her with blue electricity coming out of her fingers at Jean-Claude Junkers.

Are we voting for their leaders, or are we voting for the local jumped up tossers in suits.

I also think there's been far to many protest voting of late.

All told I think whoever wins this space opera, it will be one of the lowest turnouts of voters for some time.

*who am I kidding, I love em to much

I vote based on what my priorities are and how closely a party matches them and has policies that align with my beliefs.

I want safe cycle infrastructure that means i and my kids can cycle to work and school safely, the environment safeguarded for future generations, investment of public funds in projects that benefit the public (NHS, Renewables, High Speed Internet), i demand reasonable taxation of individuals and companies that operate in the UK. So it might be 'wasted vote', but there's one option. Greens.

And I consider myself a (radical) centrist, not a lefty or a righty. 

This may be light-hearted, but there is a serious point: who do you want to win the election?

We all know the pro-cycling, proposals of the tories which they totally refuse to fund.  The labour party is somewhat unproven, but at least their leader rides a bike and not just for photo ops.  Lib-Dems are rather like the tories, heavy on rhetoric but in my experience locally, not only fail to deliver, but make things worse.  Personally, the greens appeal to me, at least they have some principals which include a lot more cycling.

Corbyn rides Paris Roubaix quote:-  'it's an easier ride than being leader of the Labour party'

I'm sure a move to disc brakes will swing the voters.
