I've never voted Labour and after seeing them in action - never will.
What an inept government.

I did vote labour and am certainly not happy with the present fiasco, nor was I happy with the decision to go into Iraq. I look on open mouthed as we witness one crazy headline after another, and sometimes wonder if they have a death wish. Along with thousands of others I'm very dissapointed. However, I don't trust the Tories to be any better. Gordon Brown is still the party leader and he has to do some serious thinking to get Labour out of this ludicrous quagmire. Just how bad can things get before they sit around the table and decide to sort this mess out?

If you choose to pick up on their mistakes you could answer no. When the Conservatives had been in this long we had mass unemployment, interest rates hitting 15%, Black Wednesday, Cash for Questions, Cash for Passports, Churchill Matrix scandal, inflation twice the current level, Waiting times on the NHS at 18+ months, The Poll Tax and riots. So the 'sleaze' affecting the Labour Party now is pretty timid in comparrison, though we tend to wear rose tinted specs. Iraq was supported by the Tories as was Afghanistan.
Labour have made errors but, they did do a couple of good things like making the Bank of England independent, introducing a minimum wage and despite its failings the NHS is fantastic compared to the horrors of the 90's. I should know as I had need of it on a few occasions in recent years!
So in conclusion.. They are doing ok for a party that's been in power so long but, I fear they're coming off the tracks and losing thier way. The alternative is David Cameron God help us!

How do expect a labour politician or one of their supporters to tell the truth

i think all politicians are the same they start of with good intentions but they soon realise that the perks are so good they fall into a trap of thinking they are like rock stars with limos laid on air travel first class all the way i think they soon forget what they were elected for . my neighbour asked me are you voting in the election ? i said not if a politician is running

A bit early to tell. Rudd has only been there for a couple of weeks. Ask again in about 6 months.

I didn't vote labour. (Too much dishonesty)
I voted SNP and I'm happy with what they have done in Scotland.

The vote could have been an error because nothing changed.
