  After more than 12 months considering my voting intentions as you al know im a lefty sociaist, and no electable party reaches my aims, so what happens in may?
  
  well having thought long and hard about what to do i have made my decision and i dont have secrets on the voting like other forumites(undrerstand another forumite is secrety standing for tories, why such a big secret?)
  
  for my part i look to the priory maxton ems vale ward and the 3 seats up for election.
  
  i understand that d smalwood known to many as an ex mayor is one of the three labour candidates, why? because she was de selected from tower hamets not for better candidates(john excuded hes a great cllr)
  this is a sad day for me dianne did a fair job, and recently suffered a life threatening disease
  so i wil take an unusual step for me and because of the labour parties actions of getting rid of dianne i wil vote for dianne in priory area
  
  now usualy i woud be out there campaigning in priory this time i wont be as the labour party locally will only be getting that one vote from me.
  
  sue jones is another candidate and i, like many in priory wont be voting for her
  im tempted also to campaign against her.
  
  i'm sti waiting to replies i sent to the local party which must be a year ago.
  
  so for me as much as it pains me big big time
  and as a true labour person i will only be giving one of my votes to the party for d smallwood and wish her well
  
  of course my small protest wont change much and even if labour only wins one seat i dont want the tories in any more than the other 2 labour candidates
  quite a dilema for me.
  sadly though the tories are likey to gain on this.
  
  for me i will prob help gordon in st rads
  but will also be campaigning for an indy elsewhere.
  but a true indy
  
  
  im hearing also that labour localy selected 3 candidates in Deal but because the third one wasn't a woman 2 were selected the third(a male)is still waiting while the party trys to find a woman what a shambes no woman stood the party faithful went for these 3 candidates
  
  for me i fought within the party against women only shortists woman should get there by abiity, also as i pointed out to the party the guidlines for getting more women involved is just that a guidline
  i would never vote for an imposed candidate.
  
  boy am i glad i got out when i did.
