For a young voter like myself, there is little accessible information as to what the state of UK politics actually is. It is true that an individual should be responsible for their own education in such fields, but how many of us can tear ourselves away from the insipient vertical transient that is our lives of studying, contemplating the future and consequent escapism.

David Cameron was on Parkinson last night. He talked and joked about how Kate Moss thought he was a plumber, and we all laughed. Well, some of us did. Others were waiting for more important pronouncements, such as what the Conservative party intends to do with the problems of immigration in our society, if indeed there is one? Well, just-for-laughs-Cameron appeared to be appealing to his so called youth voters simply in his claims to know the rich and famous. However, we are not a moronic generation driven by celebrity fascination, we require substantiality from our politicians, and should they make important declarations we will stand up and listen.

The fact is, there is no radical voice in politics. The average young voter is apathetic to politics, they believe that not only will their vote not count, but that there is no distinction as to who they vote for. There is no glamour in politics despite Cameron’s best efforts.

David’s jokes are best left unsaid……
