I haven’t trusted any of the parties for a long time. I feel that their main interest is remaining office so they maintain power. We vote for our MPs to represent their constituency, what the people of their community think.

I find that my MP of choice does largely represent my views and others in the community, which is quite refreshing.

It is very sad Claire, something has become unhinged along the way…

For example the current proposals that require public sector workers to work longer before they can claim their pension means that young people have less opportunity for employment. There is something seriously wrong with that sort of thinking, the priority should be to think of ways to get young people into employment, not keeping older people working longer!!!

Did you vote for Tories last year, C?
I didn’t!

I don’t trust them.

I am very saddened at the state of this country today. The inequality, the great divide between rich and poor, the huge number of the unemployed,especially the young who have at the moment and for how long is unknown the inability to hope and plan for the future. I could continue but your post sums it up. Support the strike!
