Labour Makes Voting More Appealing to Younger Votes
According to Seven Day Sunday on Radio 5, the Labour Party is thinking of calling the ballot box, the X-Box, to make voting more appealing to younger voters.
I know it’s a show you don’t take seriously, but I like the idea. The trouble is, it’s the sort of idea, you could believe had been thought up by a bunch of self-opinionated politicians.

Hasn’t somebody already bagged that name?

I think a lot of the problem is that many of the young people in the under 25 age bracket have parents who dont vote. From being tiny we took our daughters with us when we went to vote, we explained what we were doing and why. So of course they see voting as a normal thing to do. Actually, youngest daughter was involved in one election, I was ticking off voters on a sheet, and she was minus 6 weeks old. And I a count scrutineer when she was minus 3 months. That was my only foray into actually being involved with a party. Although on the whole I am still of the same opinion regarding who I vote for
