  Whatever you do - do not vote Liberal Democrat.
  
  They are a mess of contradictions and oppertunism.
  
  They want to be all things to all men.
  
  Since I would never vote Labour anyway, I will be voting Conservative.

  I tend to vote Green or Lib Dem depending on their policies. The only thing I disagree with about Green policies is that they want to stop animals being kept in zoos... which I believe is useful for conservation purposes.

  Personally i see the Conservatives as the ones who always contradict themselves and you any opportunist moment to criticise government policy when either a) the Conservatives did it while they were in office (any referendums on EU policys then?) or b) They oppose Labour policies that would have traditionally been that of the Conservative Party. (Top Up Fee's anyone?)

  ...or maybe they truly represent the Third Way.
  
  Taking the good from both sides is a favourable characteristic in political parties, but I suppose those who don't really pay attention would just see it as opportunism.
