Voters come first

I voted no, as a protest vote, because of how insensitive the Government is to those of us who are struggling financially.

I reckon that about 70% of people are in financial difficulties of some sort, and that’s on a scale of going to the St Vincent de Paul, or the most favoured charity of family and friends, to people who can make ends meet, pay the mortgage/ rent and basic bills, with nothing left over.

If the Government wants to be re-elected it needs to give equal energy to the financial situation of those of us who are struggling, as it does to the country’s finances.
