what about the 'none of the above' option on the poll ?

i'm not sure yet, Hmmmm.

deffo not Labour, i'm moving away from the Tories & Dave has said that he may not have a referendum on the Lisbon treaty :(

im moving towards the Lib Dems though, but UKIP is a strong contender as is 'None of the Above' all politicians are full of shit & only in it for themselves, they feed you false promises they have no intention of keeping & just want to buy your vote.

The only problem with voting none of the above is that things will never change. I wouldn't vote Lib Dems as they are utter trash around here and everywhere, Labour...Well I think everyone hates Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister who noone voted in.

The BNP are racist and I wouldn't want a racist government, yes they might sort out the immigrants but overall wouldn't be any good.

Why can't we vote in Barak Obama to be our President, while still keeping the Queen of course, :cry:

I'm afraid it's a bit too early to say, for a General election really. 'A day is a long time in politics' afterall. I think you can probably guess which two parties I shall definitely NOT be voting for though.

We go through this every time - if you don't like the options you don't vote!

Probably going to vote Lib Dem. Labour a possible second, but I think have been in too long with too much sh*t going on under them to justify keeping them around another 5 years. BNP are the radically racist party. UKIP are the racist party for racists who don't want the burden of being called racists. Tory are the racists who cloak it under more colourful language. Everyone else, meh.

Good to see lots of Labour votes, The Sun hasn't brainwashed everyone, quite yet...

But where has those 2 BNP votes come from...something you need to tell us Jono?

surprised that anyone would vote for them :(

& Jono by not voting means you have no interest in the so called democratic process, by having a box to tick (none of the above) you can use your voice to say that none of the candidates represent your values or views, every one should vote !

You make a choice by not voting - that's democratic. More people are going to have their voice heard by not turning up than by ticking a box.

I'm pretty sure I'll vote Labour. There was a point until recently I would have probably gone Lib Dem, but Lib Dem appear to be unsure now how much support they'll give students so it seems a bit pointless voting that way.

The Tories will not benefit me in anyway, and now The Sun are giving them their vote, I will be out in force to support Labour.

I will vote for anything that keeps Gordon Brown out of office, and if this requires tactical voting so be it( except for the BNP and all those other extremists). That said, my vote doesn't really mean anything because my constituency has pretty much always been conservative, and recently by quite a sizable majority I think

I agree, anything which gets rid of Gordon Brown is good with me. It's not like anyone (apart from extremists) could do any worse. Plus who the hell cares who the scum go with?

Most people around here are Lib Dems, even though they do absolutely nothing apart from give permission to have roads dug up all the damn time.

With the way things are going at the moment, regrettably, I'm going to be voting tactically in next year's general election for the other party of business and capitalism, Labour.

Alas, Chinless will be the next President-in-all-but-title of the UK. He'll chair a group of people who all originate from the same, small, privileged toff/Eton/inbred background; this group of middle/upper/super-class will, absurdly, be representative of the whole UK population which is, mostly, working-class.

Well, with those results that means the Unofficial Mills parliament will look like this:

Conservative 167 seats (-31)

Labour 379 seats (+23)

Liberal Democrats 72 seats (+10)

Others 14 seats (+2)

Northern Ireland 18 seats (nc)

Which just shows how messed up our electoral system is really. But thats a really strong Labour majority!

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      By R1Fan1 · Posted

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.

      Do these audience figures reflect Jordan leaving and Jamie replacing him?

      I think Jamie is really starting to settle into the role well. He comes across as really warm, and genuinely invested in the listeners when he’s talking to them which is nice. I think he’s building a really great relationship with Vicki and Katie too. His recent great company podcast is great too, where he has quite a deep chat with someone new each week. He’s clearly a very genuine person and I think he has some real potential.

      Most probably. But do wonder what the future of the relax themed programmes will be when they officially wind down that service.

      I think it's just to replace Wind Down presents... which was in that timeslot, and I'm guessing Chillout Anthems was just a buffer since it'll still be played at 06:00 on Sundays.

      With listening on the U.K. for the industry in general it is good overall as most stations reach is on the up and shows radio to be more sustainable and stable outlet than linear televisions channels. This RAJAR I think with the increase shift to DAB+ the BBC will be able to say it has it’s audiences for the proposed new stations it wishes to launch and think the new innovative ideas that it seems Jack himself can take credit for on the new music show think the younger under 30 gen z demographic could increase se in that time-slot.

      Rajar looking healthy this quarter, with the numbers staying fairly stable.

      I expect that the axing of Chill Out Anthems may be related to the decommissioning and shutfdown of Radio 1 Relax. I assume soon BBC could announce or make official when it’s going to be shutdown

      The next RAJAR will be putting a lot of pressure on Aled. Will his decisions over Danny Beard and Jamie Laing and to lose Jordan North pay off? If not, it is likely bosses will be looking for his successor.  I am interested to know what fans of the station think?  Ian Chaloner who worked for Greg, Scott and Grimny before rising through the ranks must stand a chance. He is now mainstream editor.  An outsider choice but Greg's former producer Chris Sawyer would be great. He has the creativity and has held the ship well on breakfast. Although I know he is no longer with them.
