WITH the election looming, I would like to have my say.

Everyone who has a vote, needs to vote to have an opinion. If you do not, how can you make a difference?

So I say to readers vote for what you believe in and know to be true. People fought for decades for democracy and votes, so vote!

It is time to look long and hard for what is important.

No vote – then don’t complain.
