How will you be voting in this election and why?
“I will be voting Labour in this election as I do not want to see this country fall apart and become any more divided, inhospitable or negligent. I want the NHS to survive and be funded. I want better public housing for those who need it. I want a more flexible curriculum in schools, more mental health care and less homelessness on the streets. I believe in Jeremy Corbyn as a positive and proactive political force to bring in these changes, and feel at this moment he is our only hope.”

Why is it so important for young people to vote?
“Because all the ignorant people living in the past, who have made ill-informed decisions (Brexit) will die soon, and so the new generation must take responsibility for the world they will grow up in. That starts with this election. Judging from the young people I know personally, that world will be a much more sympathetic place.”

How do you feel the outcome of this election could impact you? How might it impact your peers in your industry and friends? And more broadly, our generation?
“I think it will have a devastating impact on culture, society and everybody’s well-being in this country. From Human Rights, to the already diminishing national resources we have available, and even the general spirit of community. Not to mention the privacy laws that may or may not be enforced. It could potentially become a fascist state which would change everything.”
