I do agree with you but really there needs to be people worth voting for. Our local councillor is apparently 'very good' and I suppose she is if you look at all the poncy stuff she does, you know, the nice things that everyone enjoys like cutting ribbons but where I live, we still have crime, we still have dogs' poo, we still have potholes and we still have speeding morons. Would we really notice if our local councillors were not there I wonder?
