I had to vote undecided.

I have never before been in this position, but the candidates in my area give me very little choice. I am clear that I don't want Labour, but a vote for Conservative here is a waste.

In the last local elections the 80 years of Labour dominance was defeated by the independents. The answer from Labour was a back-hander offer giving them seats on committees for a nice sum of money as long as Labour could be left in power.

The Labour offering would never get my vote
Lib would never get my vote
Plaid would never get my vote
Conservative is a wasted vote
The Independent is well meaning but not up to the job
The BNP member does not even live in the area

My vote will be not so much as a choice of who I want, but very much a vote to keep Labour out.

As they say in the Welsh valleys, stick a red flag up a donkeys bum and the clueless ex-miners will vote for him.
