I voted for a smaller party with no chance of winning in my constituency. It was that or not vote. I figured I might as well help someone save their deposit since I had a postal vote it was low effort.

Living in the South Wales valleys it's a foregone conclusion. But I made the effort, I went for an early walk and arrived at the polling station at 7:02am.

I voted Reform, I don't personally like my Reform candidate but he's the one most likely to come second place to the person I dislike even more who wears red.

102 years here of Labour and I don't see it changing in my lifetime.

Count Binface, hopefully. Could also be Alba in Scotland, Alliance in Northern Ireland, Family Party, English Democrats or any number of independent or regional cranks.

I would like to know who our independent minded voter is though!

Oh go on, do tell … was it Tommy Robinson? Or Colin Fox?

They were on the left side of the spectrum.

Trouble for Rishi, our Tory voter hasn't turned out yet

As tactical Lib dem vote for me, even if the candidate is a plonker.

I always thought I’d have felt total joy at the death of the Conservative Party but Starmer leaves me just feeling some kind of hollow void about it.

The twins and I voted just after 2pm. They were still on the first ballot box out of the 6 laid on, and the staff looked bored to tears.

Will be heading out to vote about 8:30pm after I’ve got finished work and my wife is back from the hairdressers.

On the basis of CFs notoriously accurate exit poll, I'm predicting the Conservative party to get zero seats...

Treated myself to the last bottle of champagne in Lidl. They seem to have had a run on it

I dug deep, found my inner racist and voted Reform.

Whom ever wins. The tax we all pay will be more, utility bills will increase, UKs standing in the world will get lower. And at least one group of public servants will strike. Happy days
