Local politics

4:20pm Tuesday 16th March 2010

I try never to miss examples of Adam Trimingham’s encyclopaedic memory of Sussex facts as recently illustrated in The Argus (March 10).

Adam provides a rare independent insight into local politics, which is desperately required to assess the way to vote for our country. Tragically, the major political parties too often fail the nation.

Would not introducing an abstention box on the ballot paper show politicians the full anger of voters?

The evolving United States of Europe may relegate Britain’s two-party confrontation politics into history, although the US has Democrats and Republicans.
