It is a thought, we had the Scottish elections last year and obviously the referendum in 2014, local elections next month. I am really interested in politics and even I have had enough.

I'm very interested in politics too nearly50 but the results of the past year left me speechless, especially the grand finale of Trump's election.

I'm closely following the French election at the moment and wait with bated breathe what the result will be there. We've had some great debates with friends in France about this.

Politics would be much more sufferable for all if the politicians focused on what their policies and beliefs were and presented these honestly: much less time should be spent slagging each other off. Oh but that is of course the antithesis of politics.

You have the added bonus of another referendum to contend with. Happy days! x

Not again springs to mind.

Really had enough of politics for now.

I hope she knows what she is doing but if it puts a spoke in the Scottish Independence Party wheel then at least something good will have come out of it.

DC should have called an immediate election instead of walking away after the Referendum result!

I got into trouble from hubby tonight when I said I was so sick of the lot of them, that I might abstain. Well I got a good talking to!  ::)  Of course I'll vote, but just so fed up with it all.

The other side are advising vote for the person who is for Brexit - well I've always voted for the Candidate at local elections who will speak for me even if they weren't my choice of Party.  In later years if they didn't bother coming to my door then I didn't bother either. 

This time however ...........

Be glad to have it over and I usually love elections. Think even I have had enough after the amount of electioneering we've had in Scotland in the past few years.
