Vote?...

Phyllis Starkey is the Labour MP for Milton Keynes South West which includes Stony Stratford, Galley Hill and Fullers Slade.

In my personal opinion, people who are not willing to vote, are either lazy or do not understand the importance of voting, whether it be for their own local elections or for general elections.
This view is strong, as I having voted for my local elections since I was 18, feeling the need to get my voice/vote heard, as the majority of people, if they vote or not, will happily moan about the way their town/village etc. is being run, but if they do not vote, how are they expecting these issues to change??
I feel it is ultimately very important to vote, as if you don't vote, you can't change...

In response to any main concerns I may have regarding the choice of my vote, I am not concerned about any external influences regarding my vote for my local election, as being from a strong Conservative based family, we always vote Conservative, as this influence has already been imprinted on my choice.

Although I would obviously change my vote if something drastic occurred which I did not agree with, but apart from that I am Conservative through and through :)
