Oh Quids... (better known as our dear election Agony Aunt)

I need your help, I appear to be wavering, like a reed blowing ing the wind...

I promised I would not vote for Labour after the Iraq fiasco, but want to use my vote to prevent the Tories winning... I am in a safe seat (Harriet Harman) and I am not keen to vote for her, however am worried that if I vote Liberal I may in some way be helping the Conservatives to get in (by undermining a safe seat).... I keep trying to make my choice and as the time gets closer I just get more uncertain and am in danger of becoming like a rabbit in the headlights....

Even thought of desperate measure such as spoiling my ballot paper

Any advice welcomed,

Thanks in advance for your help...

Yours gratefully, CharlieCharlie

Charliecharlie, I hope you don't mind my using your advisor's services too.


???? - I'm still not sure either. I truly wish to vote Green Party, but everyone I have spoken to has told me that voting as such would effectively be a wasted vote. Following advice/assistance from Keef/Loz on another thread, I thought I should vote Green at the Locals and vote either Yellow or Red at the Nationals. So, until recently I was leaning towards Yellow. Bear in mind that I do not wish to Blues to get in (the thought scares me to bits). However, my friend Bookworm believes I should vote for what I truly believe in - i.e. Green. So now I am back to the beginning. What to do ???? (or anyone else). If I voted Green, would it really be a waste? What are the chances of the Blues getting in in ED? (Sorry but I don't fully understand the voting system).


Time is running out.


So to summarise:


My allegiance is with Green

Under no circumstances do I wish for the Blues to succeed.

I don't particularly wish to vote either Yellow or Red, but I would - reluctantly - be prepared to do so in the interests of the greater good (i.e. keeping the Blues out).


I need sound arguments to help me decide.


Thanks in advance.

    • It may be worth consulting your vet. If she's diabetic & on medication, she will have missed 1-2 doses. It's a relief to hear that she's home, & I hope she makes a speedy recovery.
    • The swimming lessons at JAGS Sportsclub are very popular, and the gym there might meet your needs. Southwark took over running its leisure centres from everyone active a while back and so far seems to be making a real mess of things. There’s lots of private gyms and other council ones in Lewisham and Lambeth so depending on exactly where you’re going to be you can look at those. JAGS and Dulwich College both have sports clubs with nice facilities, but you can’t use them during the school day. Check their sites for details. 
    • https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jun/26/cardiff-blackweir-festival-bute-park-dispute?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other Another example of a badly sited festival, and a council bending over for the cash. What amazes me is the similarity in every way to Gala - large areas annexed but the council trying to convince everyone it's only a tiny part of the park. Claiming that the flora & fauna is being protected when the reality is a tick-box environmental survey that's not worth the paper it's written on. All very depressing.
    • Miatta Fahnbulleh MP House Of Commons LONDON SW1A 0AA 185 Farringdon Road London EC1A 1AA www.royalmail.com Dear Ms Fahnbulleh Chadwick Road, LONDON SE15 4PY Thank you for your communication regarding mail deliveries to addresses on Chadwick Road. Delivering a reliable service is our top priority, and I am very sorry that your constituent has cause for concern. I am always disappointed when I hear that any of our customers do not feel that they are receiving the service that they ought to. Following your communication, I contacted the Customer Operations Manager at Peckham Delivery Office. They have advised me that there are no current issues with the delivery of mail to addresses on Chadwick Road. They have confirmed that mail deliveries are taking place six days a week, when there is mail available to be delivered, and I am assured that there is no mail currently awaiting delivery. If at any point a delivery round cannot be completed on a particular day, for example we may have a shortage of staff, the unit will ensure that the address will become the priority the following working day. I hope that this reply is helpful. As always if we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. Yours sincerely Michael Hogg Senior Public Affairs Manager   This was the reply the MP sent me regarding lack of post.
