I jsut wanted to comment on the 'voting in your own interest' thing.
I always jsut assumed that was probably the best way to do thigns. The policies I agree with were always things to help those worse off, never to straight up give me cash or anything.
Except now I find that WfF offers me an extra 160 by this time next year. And a universal student allowance is possible. And my debt won\'t balloon. And by the time I'm workign there will (hopefully) be things in place to help buy a first home.
It makes me very suspicious, just because I'm used to saying "put others first"
I never thought my little family could come under that heading of 'others'.
