Is it any wonder why voter apathy in this county is so high when you get this nonsense going on for days on end. It's an utter farce.

Funny Mick I thought this showed that everyone is fed up with a two party system.I know I am.I regard this as a real kick up the bum to both parties as being far too damned complacent.It's the feeling that neither Tories or Labour give a stuff about those people who live in the terraced back streets of every major town or city in the UK that leads to voter apathy.Years of neglect of inner city areas will lead to voter apathy.
This was a year in which apathy was reversed somewhat and more people were at the polling stations.
I actually had to queue to vote.I cannot ever remember having to queue since I started voting.
