[QUOTE="best_fullback, post: 315512, member: 15318"] Thats quite a strange attitude to have. I can understand some people don't care but at this moment in time with the way the economy is, but I believe it is very important that everyone takes notice. How old are you? Im 20 and im at University with another year left to do. Then after that I have a training course that is £10k before I can even start doing my career. Problem is will there acually be any jobs actually going in my profession? With £30k worth of debt coming out of my pocket every month (at roughly around £180 p/m on top of tax + NI) I am severely worried what the future holds. I have loads of friends who graduated Uni last year with some great degree unable to the jobs. Now they're literally making ends meet by stacking boxes in warehouses and may as well be using their degree as a blanket. Thats why I find your philosophy "[I]aslong as the fridge is full of food and the pool is full of water, who cares what happens[/I]" a bit childish. We will all be affected by something to do with politics or decisions made by politicians during our lifetime so we should have our say in what we think should happen (admittedly in a better, more proportional way than the system is now). This is what makes me laugh; when people who haven't voted get affected by something and say 'its a disgrace!' - if you don't vote you have no right what-so-ever to complain about anything that happens.
