Often younger kids are more left-wing and support Labour because they believe it stands for things such as equality and so forth, aka helping everyone despite the fact the opposite is true. They also do it because they dont have much money, so money doesnt really play a part in their lives and doesnt make much of a difference to them because young people dont know the value of money and as we know, Labour have a very poor track record in the handling of money because they also do not know the value of money - especially when its not their own. :PQuote:

They can surely handle money better than UKIP and Tories.Quote:

History doesnt say that, 1979 and 2010 show the opposite.Quote:

Skint as in they spent their pocket money or EMA if they are in college. Considering alot of teenagers drink, and so do adults, both spend similar amounts on alcohol each week. But because they spend their allowance doesn't mean they do not value money "/.Quote:

I'm not having a go at teenagers, of course teenagers will spend money more at ease but that doesnt mean they are great at money - it infact means the opposite. I sometimes wonder how my mates waste so much money, and even myself when i'm somewhere and i'll come back with a lot less and i'll wonder to myself "jesus how did I spend that much" and when you really think about it, you waste an awful lot of it.Quote:

Do your parents spend money on you? E.g. clothes, bus, entertainment, if you go out then for food?Quote:

Bus money is (85p a day), clothes no and food - it depends, although I dont really ask for the money back and i've become more aware of how much I waste so i'm far more strict with what I buy now "do I really want that" and most of the times its a no, so I don't buy. Indeed many kids are like that, some will be like me and save up and others will spend and its the majority who spend it like theres no tommorow - hence why they have no concept of money and its value.Quote:

I can't vote sadly however my vote would definitely go to the Conservatives. For obvious reasons I don't want Labour in again (The reason being, the past 13 years :P) and I feel the Conservatives are the only real choice. They'll bring a bit of change for the better, probably not as much as needed however a vote for anyone else will just be a wasted vote and end up helping Labour or causing a hung parliament, I do not want that.
