Election 2015

So, tonight (Thursday) it is the live debate of the seven main parties. Will they tell the truth and give honest answers? For me the two main issues are…

1; getting rid of the dreadful bedroom tax, especially for the disabled, ill, and vulnerable.

2; through my experiences and where possible, equal parenting should be given after a divorce/separation etc.

Will any of those two questions be asked, and if so will the answers actually be answers and not answered with a question.

I have pretty much voted Labour all my life, but this time I just don’t know, they are all so similar. Even the Greens are out of touch. Maybe this time I vote for the likes of Yorkshire First? After-all, all parties started somewhere and the next 10 – 20 years is going to see some massive changes in the world and certainly in the UK. Just on a tangent, is that why the British government have ordered almost 600 armored vehicles. I would say these are street vehicles for the UK, whats coming eh…

    Stuart – I have no comment on the bedroom tax having no experience or knowledge about that subject. But (2) I totally feel your pain because in many ways I would have loved my ex-husband to have more time with his children when we broke up. They were 12 and 10 and he abandoned them and to this day (they are now 22 and 19) he only sees them when he wants to really, and if they upset him in any way he chooses not to see them. I totally understand that your situation is different and I applaud you for having wanted 50% custody of your children at the time … unfortrunately I spent £10,000 of my own money (my Uncle’s legacy) to stay in my house with the children because my ex-husband wanted it sold and he wanted half. Ady stood by me and eventually bought out my ex-husband’s share (which I managed to negotiate down to 37.5% through the courts) . It is a battle I NEVER intend to repeat. Your story is the opposite to mine. But you need to know not all women are bad. I am a good woman, I am loyal to who I love and I am always there for my children, Alex and Imogen. Hope this helps
