The parties that make me want to vomit when I think about people voting for them:
1. British National Party
2. Christian Party "Proclaiming Christ's Lordship" (For my Christian friends who may wonder why: Because this party's manifesto promises that, if elected, they want to: Reinstate Section 28, to ban "promotion of homosexuality" in schools; Work against acceptance of LGBT people in Scotland; Allow religious organisations and churches to discriminate on the grounds of sexual orientation/gender identity; Teach children that homosexuality is a "health hazard"; Ban abortion; Ban provision of contraception to minors without their parents consent; Promote the idea that parents are entitled to "reasonably chastise" their child in order to maintain good family discipline; Keep children in need of parents in care rather than allow them to be adopted or fostered by LGBT people; Require a couple who want a divorce to have to lay blame on one or the other and justify their wish to divorce to a court; End civil partnership as a direct equivalent to marriage for same-sex couples; deny transgendered people the right to a changed birth certificate/gender recognition; and require all children being educated in state schools, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, atheists, to listen to the Bible being read to them every day. They have a bunch of eco-friendly policies as well, but no better than the Scottish Greens: in effect, they are the Green party for bigots who hate women, hate non-Christians, and hate LGBT people.)

The parties that appear to have been made up by a bunch of blokey Scots who thought they'd be rather good in the pub one night:
1. Jury Team
2. No2EU:Yes to Democracy
3. UK Independence Party

The parties that were made up by a bunch of blokes who thought they'd be rather good, only that night was quite some time ago:
1. Conservative Party
2. Labour Party
3. Scottish National Party

The party that came about because of some really bizarre political infighting in the 1980s, that pushes more political bumf through my door than all the others put together:
1. Liberal Democrats

The parties that I could just about squint and consider voting for, if I had to:
1. Scottish Socialist Party
2. Socialist Labour Party

The party I'm probably going to voted for:
1. Scottish Green Party.

The lone Scottish bloke who wandered in and thought he'd have a go: Duncan Robertson.
