[4parajon]

There's no point in whinging about the state of the country if your not prpared to stand up and vote for change.

Agreed Jonboy

 

And in answer to Dave's question, yes, I am voting tomorrow

[garyv6100e]

I will be voting , although i live in a tory "safe" seat still important to have your say IT IS YOUR DUTY

[Trevmk3]

Only trouble is you can vote for change but the reality is it wont happen.

 

wont be voting tomorrow

 

i also dont agree with the people that say you have to vote because people fought for your right to do so, well in that case they also fought for the right for me not to vote.

[D4N]

Il be voting tomorrow

[Vista]

Trev, what's your reason for not voting? The only person you're short changing is yourself? Of the parties you can vote for, there must be one who's policies you prefer to the others?

[livewire7116]

we all the right to vote!

 

i reserve the right "NOT" to vote

[Trevmk3]

Scott, the policies from all of them mean absolutly nothing, as always as they always turn back on them within a year or 2, why bother to vote when they cant be honest? im not that into politics because of the lies just my feeling on it, i might vote one day but then again i reckon there is more chance of me not doing

[Skimmer]

Dont waste your vote ive just had a serious argument with a constant whinger / moaner etc etc about this country and about what needs doing bla bla who then says " I aint voted for 20 years theres no point " so dont waste it use it

[pauln]

I will always use my Democratic right to vote. My local seat is a Tory safe seat (53% of vote) but I live in hope that one day my vote will be counted nationally. Don't forget people fought for the common man and womans vote, don't insult them by not using it.

[Mk2Jo]

Each to their own I say but for those that don't vote have no right to moan about the economy Those of us who do, do

Im feeling the same mate been listening to what they all have to say and i agree with you ive yet to hear them mention anything off real merit that will apply in someway to me.

 

Iam with the GMB union now there a Labour backing union but yet if Labour or any of the rest of them has its ways it will force my employer to put my job (and others also) out to tender next year, to save/claw back money as there in debt. Now that money there trying to save/claw back is money previous labour/conserv/libdem/snp local goverments squandered on crap they didnt need. Now i think why should i vote for any of the idiots when whoever gets in could make me unemployed by next year? So why should i vote to help keep in or change to another set of useless idiots

 

I often think that countries should be run by more practically minded rather than the dreamers it has now. As you ask a tradesman and he can dummy it down and find simple answers to the problems these uni dreamers take months of head scratching to solve. (no offence to the uni people who have sense )

[Mrs O/H/C]

I will be voting ...so then i can moan with good reason

[Pipster007]

Good to see someone will be using using their vote for good reasons

[Stu_B]

We have a tory safe seat, he doesn't even bother campaining & is seen to do nothing all year round as well as being in the top 30 worst expense claimers It's sad but I will be voting in the hope others feel the same & we can get the scounging toff out

[GJUK]

I've voted

 

That way at least I've done my bit.

[pauln]

Got in the polling station at 7.02 this morning and was the 3rd one to vote. when I left there were more people heading in which was good however they vote.

[mk1super]

Voted so now i can moan like fook if i want

"If you don't vote you can't moan about who is in power"

 

Now explain to me how the person that got the most votes looks like they won't get into power, and now Brown says he will resign we will get yet another unelected Prime Minister.

Could you just clarify the point of bothering to vote?

A good question.........................that I counter with:

 

Perhaps if the 35 - 40% of the population that didn't turn out to vote had actually done so, we wouldn't be in this mess now with Gordon Brown squatting at No 10.

Not sure if it would have made that much difference, I can only speak for my ward but the turnout of 71% made very little difference to the local Tories majority compared with 2005 when it was only 64% (historically the Tories are very good at getting their supporters to the polling station). You could argue that 35-40% of the population don't care if Gordon Brown is still prime minister.
