...if we are not going to be listened to?
Im the first to admit Im not that clued up about politics, but I really see how this hung parliament is fair.
The torys got the most. So surely they shouuld be in power as the biggest number of people voted for them?
I know they need to have the majority but isnt that a stupid rule that takes it out of the voters hands? I mean, it seems to me that its up tp Nick Clegg now as to who gets in to power - who ever agrees to give his party what he wants he will do a 'deal' with them. His party got the least amount of votes, so obviously not many people in the country want him running things, yet he's going to get a hand in it.
I dont really see the point in voting if , in the end it isnt up to us to decide who we want to run our country. It is now up to the 3 main parties to decide between themselves - to do 'deals'. They shouldnt be doing deals and bargaining with each other - it our counrty , thats why we vote isnt it?
I know I havent explained myself very well but surely the bottom line is that now any of the parties could be in power - our votes really have nothing to do with it - if they did then the two top parties would have to be joined but of course that would never happen. I just think it leaves a bad taste in the mouth to think of the politicians all sucking up to one another right now to get what they want. Torys got the most votes - the people spoke - they should rule.
So what was the point of me voting, if they are going to decide themselves anyway? And Im not a disgruntled tory supporter - I voted labour.
