Frequently Asked Questions
Please view the following before sending me any emails with any queries you may have. I'm not doing this for profit and have a day-job and a family, so cannot guarantee to respond to every mail I receive...
Who is sponsoring this site? How can I be sure it is objective?
Why the green tables etc? Are you a member of the Green Party?
What happens to the answers from the Picker-o-matic?
I'm still not sure who to vote for - what should I do next?
Why only concentrate on the 3 main parties? What about the UKIP/Green/BNP/Plaid Cymru parties etc?
Why didn't you ask about X or Y?
Who is sponsoring this site? How can I be sure it is objective?
No one is sponsoring this site. This site was created as I really couldn't decide which of the main parties I should vote for and needed a view that was as objective as possible. I've received no cash or benefits in kind from any of the parties. As to whether it's objective - I've left it to you to decide if the questions are objective. If they're the kind of questions you'd want to ask, great. If not, sorry but send me an email and when I've got enough I'll do an update. I've not tampered with any of the responses from each party and make no commentary as to whether they're fair or not.
Why the green tables etc? Are you a member of the Green Party?
No. But I couldn't use red, blue or yellow as that may imply favouritism!
What happens to the answers from the Picker-o-matic?
Nothing. All the code for processing the picker-o-matic is in your browser. You can inspect it if you want to ensure I'm not skewing any results. I don't get to see what you enter.
I'm still not sure who to vote for - what should I do next?
Visit the sites of the main parties. Ask questions the next time a canvasser comes around. Write to the representatives. Read the news
Why only concentrate on the 3 main parties? What about the UKIP/Green/BNP/Plaid Cymru parties etc?
Space, time and the 80% rule. If there's sufficient demand I'll do it, but baby steps first. I'm not paid to do this remember!
Why didn't you ask about X or Y?
Space, time and the 80% rule. I can't possibly cover all bases and there's no point sending a 300 question mail to the parties. I'd never get a response.
Who are you?
Does it matter? I've presented the facts. Either the questions and answers are useful to you or they're not. Before I started this I had no bias.
Who would you vote for now?
That's personal and irrelevant. Make up your own mind on the answers on this site.
Why are you doing this?
