I suggest you don't post anything political or this forum from now on. You don't vote - by your own admission - so what entitles you to share your political opinion? At least spoil your ballot paper.Jan Higgins, Button and howard mcsweeney1 like thisJust because you don't take an interest in politics doesn't mean that politics won't take an interest in you.

If you feel that strongly about them then you should use your vote to keep them in, if or maybe when they loose that missing vote could be the reason.-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

Errrrrrr......Vic used to be a keen UKIP supporter Jan so perhaps withholding his vote may save another party from becoming extinct!

Sorry to have a bash, Bish, but that's bosh.
Don't you think it rather dangerous to seek to circumscribe political positions or opinions within the ideological borders of the political parties that put up candidates for elections? That's delegitimising political discourse coming from traditions that exist outside narrow mainstream politics (a job, by the way, that the BBC and corporate media carry out very well as it is) and is a rather totalitarian tendency in my view.ray hutstone likes this'Pass the cow dung, my dropsy's killing me' - Heraclitus - 4 July 2018 14:21345696Weird Granny Slater wrote:

We need to leverage our synergies and Update our stakeholder matrix which will in turn sunset that project and in turn conclude with either more negative lacking abilities.
A flexible and robust scalable critical emission could be the turnkey of the situation.

This has left local authorities only able to carry out services they are obliged to and subsidising bus services is not one of them and worst of all she knows it.

VOTE! Or spoil your ballot paper, if you are able to vote (i.e. healthy etc.) then exercise your right to have a say. Not voting is tantamount to apathy, allowing commentators and spin-doctors to state that people aren't that bother about changing the status quo.
For the record, I have no issue with people voting for their beliefs, whether that is Labour, Tory, UKIP, Independent, Tax Payers Alliance etc. Just exercise your right to vote, our forefathers and foremothers played the long game to give us - the subject plebians of the UK - the opportunity to vote.

No clear lines between the parties?!! Not since pre-Kinnock has Labour been SOOOO different to the Tories and the Lib Dems. I accept the point about the local MP and the party leaders - that is your perogative; but none of this is an excuse for not going to the ballot box - have your say where it matters.
