The elections are fast approaching and for th first time in my rather long life, I face a dilemma. I do not know who to vote for. I was a life long Conservative, but cannot in all honesty, vote in that manner in a ,municipal election in Wolverhampton I was hoping for the Pensioners convention and the City of Wolverhampton United ex service council, to put forward candidates. It cost nothing. No Penalty no deposits, just 12 signatures of support.The situation in Afghanistan, our appalling economic situation, the endless uncontrolled immigration, and the growth of fat right and left parties, means I should vote. This may mean that 2010 could be the year of the independents in municipal and national politics.. Where are all you rugged individuals. Let us know WHO you are, where you are standing and many of us will help you Hans1928

Some of us who would stand as independents face a dilemma if we are members of political parties; most would be expelled for standing against the party. There is also the logistics, as you need ot be out there gaining support all year round, not just at election time and we do not have the volunteers to be active.
