You're not in favour of same-sex marriage? I don't want to pry, and you certainly don't have to answer this if you'd rather not, but do you mind if I ask why?
My fiancé, who is quite in favour of LGBT rights in general, isn't sure what he thinks of gay marriage either. He has some interesting arguments. I'm not sure I agree with them, but I can see the merit in them nonetheless. So I'm not being all judge-y here or anything - I'm just genuinely interested in why this is the case for you.
I'm still going to put all the loony right-wing parties last, because that would be worse than loony left-wing parties getting seats.
I did the same. As much as I cringe at parties like the Socialist Alliance, I'd still rather have them in government than the white supremacist Christian Democrats (whose policies have a whole specific section that's just about how they hate Muslims, which would have lost my vote straight away even if nothing else did), for example.
