The time is fast approaching for the general election and I for one, for the first time ever, have no idea who to vote for.... The main political parties all seem to say the same thing and are very much alike.... I am so sick of empty promises and once in power, nothing seems to change!
So what do I want?
Better health care with more nursing and medical staff and equality for all medical conditions. People should receive the treatment that they need... it shouldn't be down to money...
A better and improved Education system, where all our children have the very best education - after all, they are the future and deserve the very best in life...
A fairer social system, where those in real need are helped and supported. People should not live in such extreme poverty, relying on food banks in order to live !
For our elderly to be cared for... They so often seem to be forgotten and at their time of life should not have to live in poverty, fearing how they will keep warm...
For equality for all with no stigma.... people should be allowed to be who they are without fear of being judged and free from discrimination.
For tighter control on our borders and to eradicate extremism in our country - making it a safer place to live.
For our ex service men and women to be cared for - again, it seems that they are another forgotten group within society... They should not be homeless and live in poverty and they should receive the proper care, attention and respect that they deserve.
I could go on and on.... but in a nut shell, I want a better and safer country to live in, where we as individuals are treated equally, free from poverty with better health care and education.
We were once a great nation... what has happened?
At the end of the day, I think my vote will come down to who I think will deliver what they say and who are passionate about people, not politics.
It's time to look beyond the parties and look towards those who strive for the very best for us... who that is right now, I just don't know, but I am sure that things will become clear as time goes on...
I am not usually a political beast, but I really feel that change is needed - where people matter and not money!
