No Wonder Voters Don`t Bother

[fred c]

The problem of voters in Local Elections showing no interest in the results isn`t a mystery when you realise what goes on at the top level.

MP`s from all Parties are involved in the systematic abuse of the public purse, & the annoying thing is that like our local "Mob" they think its perfectly acceptable to take the P*** out of the electorate.

Another reason is that last week i went to vote at Jesmond road school and had to park 100 metres away because the school refused to open the gate to park. It was pitch black in a scarey area of town and in the 5 minutes i was there i counted 6 cars that just drove away without bothering. The turn out would have been a lot less if it had been raining. Just ridiculous 

[for fawkes sake]

Good Lord. Imagine not being able to park right outside the door in order to vote - a 100 yard walk is clearly too high a price to pay simply to exercise a right that millions have sacrificed their lives to maintain.

Yes FFS, 100 yards is a long way for an 84 year old woman alone in the dark, use your common sense you fuckin* m**r*n.
