Liberal Democratic Party: Who's voting for the Liberal Democrats today?
More and more people are saying they support the Lib Dems. Show your support and vote for the Liberal Democrats today. We will bring real change to Britain.
"I hear that a vote for the Lib Dems is a wasted vote.
"I disagree I think that a vote for the Lib Dems will send a breath of fresh air through the third rate, inefficient and corrupt world of British politics. Some waste eh?"
"As a once committed Labour voter I, like so many, have been appalled by the abandonment of the values they advocated while in opposition. For me, their conduct on asylum alone is reason enough never to be able to contemplate voting for them again.
"Those who, like me, have despaired of political alternatives, should take a second look. I believe they could open a space for real dialogue, where values of compassion and tolerance take centre ground."
"For those of us who firmly believe in human rights, the rule of law, and the protection of the environment, the Liberal Democrats are the only party who can be trusted. They were the only major political party to oppose the war in Iraq, and they are still the only party committed to a full public inquiry into allegations of British complicity in torture.
"Nick Clegg is the only leader willing to challenge Labour and Conservative commitment to renewing Trident and the use of nuclear power. He has consistently spoken out for our civil liberties and human rights. That is why Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrat party have my full support."
“Parliamentary democracy depends on both a Government and an Opposition - an arrangement intended to subject policies and legislation to critical scrutiny. For many years now, there hasn’t been a real Opposition: the two old parties have agreed on almost all significant issues, and run headlong together into disaster.
"We need a new voice, somebody to think differently, and the Lib Dems can offer that.”
Brian outlines his reasons for supporting the Liberal Democrats for the past ten years in this video.
“I am supporting the Liberal Democrats because one of their key pledges is to give all children a fair chance in life.
"Their 'pupil premium' will give extra funding to disadvantaged children to ensure that no child is left behind because of their background or their parents bank balance and that's change I can believe in."
Watch Floella's video, outling more reasons why she supports the Liberal Democrats.
"I shall vote Lib Dem mostly because scrapping the ludicrous 'first past the post' system will turn us into a proper democracy whose benefits will long outlast the next parliament, and also because my local candidate in Oxford is Evan Harris, one of the few MPs in any party who doesn't pander to 'faith'."
"If all the people who liked the Lib Dems voted for them you could change politics overnight and we could have a proper three party system."
"I'll be voting Lib Dem this election because they represent the best chance in a lifetime to make lasting and fair change to how the UK is governed."
"This is a revolutionary moment. The first time for real change in 100 years."
John also recorded this video giving more reasons why he supports the Liberal Democrats.
"I support Nick Clegg because his policies they are clear, fair and innovative."
"I'm voting Lib Dem because of their defense of Civil Liberties, determination to reform the voting system, resolve to put green policies at the heart of mainstream politics, the visibility of women MPs on serious media discussions, their attempts to be honest about tough (and unpopular) subjects and their grown up attitude to Europe.”
"Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats have shown that they are the only party with the courage and understanding to tell the truth, stand up for our rights, and reform this unequal political system.
"By supporting the Lib Dems I hope that we can finally achieve the representative democracy that we all deserve."
"I am supporting the Liberal Democrats because they were the only party brave enough to vote against the war in Iraq."
