Labour needs to stop deliberating and start fighting back

By Lucette Davies

Friday morning saw a huge number of people facing their greatest fear, like a bolt out of the blue, all hopes of a better government were banished.  With the resignation then of Ed Miliband, Nick Clegg and Nigel Farage there seems to have been a vacuum created.  Ideas, prophecies, anger, despair and desperation have all rushed to fill that vacuum but how much good is this doing?

Why the young should vote on May 7th

By Eddie Saint-Jean

Latest figures show that Labour is the most popular party among younger voters at 32% followed by The Greens on 22% with the Conservatives close behind. However, it has been argued that Government statisticians are aware of the falling youth vote.  This falling turn out has made the government feel able to formulate policies that are damaging for 18-24 year olds without having to worry about losing their vote. In this age bracket just 56% of people will go out and vote, moreover only 60% of them are registered to do so compared with  92% of the wider population. So is youth apathy sabotaging their own progress in British society?

With Labour and the Conservatives near neck and neck in the polls it is almost certain that we will once again have a hung parliament.  For some voters this is an appealing prospect, I have heard some people say  they would like Britain to always be led by a coalition government.  So I feel  that it is worth writing this post which will outline the advantages and disadvantages of coalition governments and present some thoughts on how else we may achieve a government we are happy with.

A letter to the voters of the UK

By Lucette Davies

This is a letter of desperation, desperation for a better future but from a belief that a better future is possible.  Voters in May will get faced with a choice, perhaps it is not a good choice but this is what I want to say to anyone registered to vote in the UK.
