Voter apathy is biggest risk to economy
Once again the news channels are gripped with election “news” which is killing the level of interest in politics in the general public.
All the politicians, pumped up with their own self importance are putting us off the idea of bothering to vote.
The real risk is that the politicians returned to parliament feel that they have a mandate to implement their ideas even though the majority didn’t vote for them and there is a good chance the majority didn’t vote at all.
The risk is not that we end up with low grade politicians, that is guaranteed, it is that we end up with a bunch of Muppets who screw up the economy.
Imagine getting the Labour party back, imagine getting the Welsh or Scottish issues dominating the rest of the country in the event of a hung parliament. Imagine getting the one eyed monster again.
The best thing to do is figure which politician out of the bunch is least bad and stick with them. None of the above with a twist.
The most important thing will be to save the economy from another 5 years of misuse.
