I feel that if you dont vote, then it is only your fault if you dont like something that happens in parliment. If you dont speak out, then nobody will hear you. Thats what the voting system is in place for, so that everyone can have their say. I feel if you dont vote, then you dont care. Everyone should vote for what they want, their extra vote could change the decision of who gets the seat in parliment, so everyone should vote as it is very importent. at the end of the day, it is your country and is you dont have your say then something may happen that you don't like and you will not be able to do anything about it. having said this, once someone is voted into power, they will only do what they want anyway.
The thing that will top my vote this year will most likey be due to student fees and grants. this is the most important thing in my life at the moment, so which ever party offers the best incentives which will effect me personaly will get my vote. Also i believe a change is needed in parliment as labour, to be honest, aren't doing that well are they. saying that, they have also not left much for someone else to build on, so it will be a very tough time for anyone who gets into power,,, and good luck to them.
