Acrylic-Bob, I understand why you are so disheartened with the political process but I totally agree with andydawson1982 - if you don't vote then your voice isn't being heard. I haven't filled in my postal vote yet - but especially being a woman (people died for the right for us to vote) I will certainly make sure I send it off.

I do actually like the postal system - but still think that people should have the right to choose which way to vote - by post or a polling station. I think we have turned into a nation of cynics (although I understand why) any new suggestions that Hyndburn Council or the Government comes up with are quickly rejected.
