X marks the spot
The following morning, along with my wife, I voted.
Ever since I was first able to put an X on a piece of paper at the age of eighteen, I’ve done so at every election.
I’ve never been a floating voter either. You know the sort of thing, Conservative one election and Labour the next.
Although I have put my mark next to different parties, they’ve always been on the same wing.
If anything, my views have remained consistent.
It’s just the party that I basically support that’s changed, hence the voting for alternatives that reflect my own thoughts and political values.
I suspect there are many people who share these views, on both the right and the left.
