I honestly have no faith in Political parties and their policies these days.
We need to bring power back to the poeple
As cheesy as it sounds, we really do. We as a nation have forgot how to revolt.

I kind of agree with that. I look at both sides of the Atlantic and think "Why aren't you people doing anything?". Out here they protested in their hundreds of thousands about the imminent dangers of imported US beef. They were doing this for months....even though it was bullshit spread through the media and Korean beef producers who rip off everyone and don't want to compete. But the point is that they get out in numbers and make a stand.
In the UK protests are small scale and easily dispersed. Why aren't Americans camping out on Wall Street in their tens of thousands everyday? They don't have the excuse of needing to go to work. It seems the West has become an apathetic place where people just take whatever their told and say "What can I do? Coronation Streets on later". In the age of the Internet where we can all get connected so easily, I am surprised there isn't more social unrest.
I find myself in that same situation... only, i've noticed that its now an ever more re-occurring scenario.
Maybe it's becuase the Media's attention seems to be with Mr.Cameron, The Conservatives and their impending ascent to power. It just fills me with complete trepidation and melancholy.
Now to feel like that about a man on the street is one thing, but to feel this way about my nation, or the power that governs it, enrages me.
It think that, as a society, we are oppressed and have been made dishevelled without really seeing it.
We just don't know how to make a difference, to make our point and to shake things up when no on is listening.
I guess we prefer to bend over. It's shameful.![]()
