Persuading the disillusioned to vote

Day 6: Do MPs realise what they have done? Today, has been one where people who need a voice feel they have no one to trust. As a new boy to this, it is shocking that people should be so disillusioned with politics. I had 3 good conversations with residents who weren't going to vote but by the end of listening to them, I had persuaded them it was their real chance to have their say. Democracy matters!
The public actually really like the idea of co-operation. Well done Vince and Nick for raising this on debt and deficit.
As one resident said today, big majorities are so dangerous.
Highlight of the day, a fellow (now retired) teacher offering to teach my classes so I could campaign more!
