The thing is Margaret, people are voting with their feet and aren't bothering any more, there as always been that statement that if you don't vote then you don't have any right to criticise, but if you do vote these days what difference does it make, politics has just become a slanging match, not what you can do for the electorate but how made points can be scored against the other party, none more that here in Hyndburn were politics just became a peeing match
