I don't think anyone should base their vote on a single issue, although on the other hand that's kind of a problem with representative democracy I guess. I should imagine that many Tory voters would be appalled at the thought of fox hunting coming back (although perhaps more still wouldn't care), but be rather more concerned about a Labour government ruining everything else (as they see it), so vote Tory anyway. Fair enough, but such subtleties are totally lost in a single "X" that could be interpreted as OK'ing *everything* in the manifesto.
I don't think there's a solution to this problem, it just irritates me that this exists all the same. No voter ever agrees with 100% of the policies of any party, but there's no (practical) mechanism for expressing what you actually do and don't agree with at the ballot box.
