[Margaret Pilkington]

The question is...Where do you place your trust when those you have trusted in the past have proved to be unworthy of that trust?
When those you have trusted have not lived up to their promises, either at local or national level?
Come the election, I will trundle down to the polling station and will either tick all of the boxes or write on my ballot paper 'none of the above'.
I will go to the polling station so that I am not considered one of those too apathetic to stir my stumps to go and vote......one of those 'lazy people'.
I cannot align myself to any of the current political parties. I trust none of them because my trust has been squandered so many times. I feel I have been duped by false promises.
Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me!
There is no such thing as democratic process - change through the ballot box is just an illusion. A sop to common people to let them think they have a say in how the country is governed.
