'There are 6 people standing this time including Mr Sheldon . I won't be voting for any of them.'

If you don't vote you can't complain. It's your responsibility, your fault.

I already added my name to the petition in the first link.

The second link won't connect but then, of course, I noticed Comrade Corbyn's name in the link, so no great loss.

Probably not, but that don't matter anyway.

Re: Do i matter. ? (The local elections May 5th)

It does, because it's asking Corbyn to support the Proportional vote campaign. It's not to support him or his party. I'll try to post link again later.

I don't believe that is true! With the present voting system there are only 2 parties that really have a chance, so people choose the one they feel is the better option. If Proportional Representation was the voting system, I believe that more people would vote for alternative parties, and not feel they were wasting their vote.

I am not complaining moreover , you do enough for all of us .

I don't acknowledged the necessity for Police and crime commissioners so to me it is pointless to vote for any of them .

Re: Do i matter. ? (The local elections May 5th)

We can cast our votes tomorrow, councils, mayors, police crime commissioners, possible eradication of Tory and Labour in Scotland not to mention Wales.

Not finding much appetite for mayor and PC in my ward many saying they wont vote for them as unwanted extra layer of unnecessary administration.

It will be a test of Corbyn and his policy's, not sure why the Liberals and Ukip have failed to be visible.

They probably think the Tories are doing their job for them.

Re: Do i matter. ? (The local elections May 5th)

Hi

Corbyn has said that Labour will not lose any seats.

We will see.

It would be normal for the Government, with it's unpopular austerity measures, to get a kicking at this point in time, Labour should be seeing massive gains tomorrow.

Interesting.
