Party Election Broadcasts - do they influence you?

[di marco]

after seeing the labour election broadcast last week on bbc, i was wondering, do watching these broadcasts help to influence your vote or do you think they are a waste of time? also, with the broadcast such as the labour party one, where it slags off and takes the mick out of the conservatives instead of talking about what they propose to do themselves, would it persuade you to not vote conservative and vote labour, or would it influence you not to vote labour cos of the extremes they can go to to try and make you vote for them?
(i hope that makes sense lol!)

no personally, even though i cant vote yet if i could they dont influence me into choosing them especially if they dont talk about policys and just how they are better than the other parties. Id prefer to vote for an independant party.

i dont even watch them, i turn over if they come on! full of lies and false promises!

[Meh]

I watch them, but I don't believe them. Trying to find a honest politician with integrity is extremely rare in these days of lies and sleaze. I sometimes think it'd be better to be with the silent majoirty who don't vote, but that's contradictory because if they did vote, maybe the political parties would take more note.

PPB are the time before a program I want to watch to make a cup of tea! I don't pay attention to them but I am waiting for a politition to come knock on my door and ask what are they doing about family values as it seems single people get more benefits then married ones

[Chloe O'brien]

I do watch them but I don't believe what they say as they never implement the promises when they do get elected. I also think that politician are paid far to much money

Most PPB are so insincere that they actually put me off the party concerned.

[dddMac1]

no Because all the Party's are as bad as the other they Lie and cheat

mind you losing 1023 prisoners that should have been deported in the country doesnt sound to promising for a labour vote. It makes you think how thins country is being run. i mean come on no PPB can make up for that mistake.
