The Guardian posted:

Williams had been checking the disputed ballots as part of his duties as an election agent, and also found one ballot which had ‘wank’ written in every single box apart from the Green party. The voter left a note saying ‘not wank’ for the environmentalist party which was deemed permissible.

Depends on which era of Libdem supporters you're talking about, it's a bit complicated. In fact that entire party is a headache of complex and fuckery. People voting in this election on mass for them aren't going to vote for them in the general, town I was born in swung huge to them for this euro election (pretty much a forever red place normally) because of the brexit. Come a general, it'll be Labour again.

Lib Dems really are a transplant of American Democrats, right down to not even knowing if they're pro-welfare or just want to privatize everything. The only thing you can say about them definitively, is that they're liberals.

the elites have succeeded in framing absolutely everything as brexit/not-brexit so they don't have to examine their poo poo policies for a while

And having no particular principles, that's why it's hard to look back over previous elections and work out why they got particular support. It depended on what particular crap they were saying that particular day.

Iirc they had a coalition with the Tories and still wonder why they lost all credibility

They're basically what post-Bernie liberals are probably going to look like
