Scottish voters' panel: Manifesto views

In the run up to the general election, BBC Scotland's news website has asked a number of voters to share their views and predictions ahead of the outcome.

Here, four of the panel offer their assessment of the party manifestoes.

Duncan King

Duncan King:
Edinburgh
"Of the mainstream parties, it seems only the Lib Dems and the SNP have the basic moral integrity to back off from the crime of the Iraq war"

Michael Marley

Michael Marley:
Perth

"As a voter, I feel the manifestoes are a waste of time, and they do not seem to have any relevance to the way I would vote"

Bob Crozier

Bob Crozier:
Larbert
"I usually give each party a chance by reading their manifesto, but my choice is decided by what the parties don't say"

Jim Monaghan

Jim Monaghan:
Glasgow
"The Conservatives have made their pledges with undertones of old - slotted in to keep their dying breed happy"

We also want to hear what you think, so send us your comments using the form after each person's views.

The readers' panel has been selected from as wide a cross-section of people as possible and may not be representative of wider public opinion.
