How are you going to vote?
i realised last night that i've had no literature about the local elections, parish and District. so why or who should i vote for? and then they wonder why they get low turnout. pretty poor.
I agree but it's sadly never the case though. Local elections are always treated as popularity polls for the government in Westminster as opposed to judging local people on local issues. Crazy....
These local elections shouldn't be about mud in the eye for the coalition, or party allegiance, but whether your individuals have been functioning productively on your behalf. ....
Are we really at the stage where unless you get a party pamphlet through the door, you don't know who to vote for? ...

EDIT: I can't actually post on Lord B's poll as I'm Yes/Abstain!
i agree entirly with the second point... so im confused by the first. i have this funny notion about voting for what the candidates individually stand for, particularly at local elections. surely if you believe in the second point then you should welcome this? if a party or candidate cant be bothered to communicate their policy why should i vote for them? in the past i have received a round up pamplet covering all candidates, as well as party ones. I looked last night (albeit breifly) and couldnt even find a candidate list online. sorry, but im not about to trawl through minutes of meetings to judge what the councillors positions are, which doesnt help for incoming candidates anyway. democracy in action.
Green and YES
