General election in the UK

[RampagingVenom 554]

Hello & a very good day to you all :)

the reason why I`m posting this topic is because tomorrow May 7th is a very important day for the UK

it is the General election where the people vote for a new government.

 

The current government is the Conservative party & the leader is David Cameron *Prime minister*

the leader of the opposition is Ed Miliband *Labour party*.

 

Now many people feel that`s there is no point in voting at all as who ever you vote for will do simply what ever they want & ignore the concerns of the people anyway & many people want more of a say in the democratic process other than putting an X in the box of the prospective candidate.

 

Other will say YOU must vote people have died to get the vote when once nobody was allowed to vote &

Emily Pankhurst * leader of the British suffragette movement*  helped women to get the right to vote

so it`s vital for people to vote to have their say & be a part of the political process & in the world many millions do not get the chance to vote as they have no democratic process or democracy so YES I can understand why it`s so important to cast your vote on election day.

 

But I really want to know your views your opinions your concerns if any about elections & if you vote why do you?

if you don't why don't you?

 

Please do not argue about who`s right & who`s wrong

& please do not get personal

lets keep it mature & sensible & air our views in a claim respectable way.

 

Thank you all for reading & I wish you all a very pleasant day   ^_^

I have officially given up of politics, its quite clear that all politicians do is sell candy in order to receive your support and then spit it back in your face afterwards, i am not planning for permanent residence in the Uk anytime soon
