Hi all, I’m 33 and for the first time I’m taking an active interest in our government. I dont know who to vote for – my initial feelings are that they all make promises that they dont go on to deliver. If i’ve read it right, i’m amazed by the stats, i’m sure i read on one post that only 38% voted in the last election??? I’ve started reading around the manifestos but not really seeing much that I like at the moment. I’ve worked full time since i was 17, never claimed any benefits, studied part time (and paid for it myself) and gained a professional qualification in an attempt to better myself. Would love to have a family but it’s looking less and less likely to happen with the ridiculous cost of housing, fuel, general living, childcare etc etc. I dont believe in sponging off the state, despite the fact I, and many other others like myself have paid into it predominantly for the benefit of others. I’m looking for a party who will look after hard working people-and who will be fair. I’m already afraid that I’m living in a dream world. I took part in the vote above – I voted None of the above.
