I actually agree with part of what you are saying - about putting millionaires or multi billionaires in power, the rich getting richer while we all get poorer, etc. I can see it. I can also see that people like Trump are in it for themselves, of course I can.
But that's all about money. And to people like me - and many who voted for Trump - being safe is more important than money. I want my children to have as bright and prosperous future as possible, and that may well be under a Labour government where they get fairness.
But I also want them to actually have a future. To not be dead.
And the left wing governments all over Europe are letting in too many terrorists and potential terrorists into their country, and there are constant terror attacks. We would have had plenty more here by now were it not for our fantastic secret services.
And I already know your answer will be that I and the others who feel like this are being brainwashed. That we are listening to lies told by the likes of Farage and Trump, and the EDL. And that the right wing media are scaremongering.
I already know your answer.
And then others will say, there's less chance of a terrorist attack than being hit by a bus, blah blah blah, and all the other things that are used as excuses.
But that doesn't wash. I want someone in power who will try to protect us. People can go on about us being brainwashed as much as they like, but every time I see a new Islamic terror attack and loads of innocent people dead, I know that I am right in my convictions, that I do not - under any circumstances - want a left wing government led by someone like Jeremy Corbyn who wants an open border policy, let them all in! Let them all in to kill us. No thanks.
