I agree in that it is good to see them participate but I think it only happened because of the promise of tuition fees being scrapped.
Now because Labour hasn't got in and that expectation will not be met I worry that they will now turn around and think voting is pointless.
The biggest parts of Labour's manifesto appears to be nothing more than a blatant attempt to bribe the electorate. It didn't work as well as the party expected though.
