Today the Politicians will all try to woo us youngsters to vote!

I am in my second year of university, almost there, just on my last essay of the term, so my awareness of life is a bit hazzy to say the least. The three main rules of uni life are: don’t do any work, or atleast don’t admit it; never tidy your room, well ive only done it once this year so please let me off; and never ever vote Tory.

Rebellious, arrogant, revolutionary and anti-establishment, and i am all of these, these are the views that are essential to the student psyche since practically forever, even if commitment to the left only amounted to a poster of the great man Che’ Guevara on the bedroom wall. Well i have a metre by metre painting in the living room, and all his diaries and memoirs and of course almost every foreign film recording his life, and i am not even left wing.

True, the occasional Tory did squeeze through the net, but they are losers and stuck up, most lecturers working at the top 30 Universities in the UK tend to be great lefties themselves, so the subject taught is almost always entirely biased, and would add fuel to the great left fire. You can easily spot a Tory by their tweed Jacket and Brown brogues: the hardcore would even wear a waist coast.

The more right wing you are as a student the more you are planned and organised on what life has install for you. Many lefties speak of travelling, smoking pot and letting life take its own course. The Tory however, wants to be Prime Minister, and has mapped out life’s career on the back of an envelope- my being in-between all of these, excluding the envelope.

The Tories however, as students are a rare breed. Collectively, when we graduate we will all fall into a career, being a teacher, working in a bank or doing what our parents had done previously; this is not a significant problem of course.

Regrettably, the Tories are becoming acceptable again, what does this mean to styles and decoration to student pads? The days of paying homage to Che’ and Tony Benn may be over, just like no decent guys have a mass collage of naked girls in their room like the 90’s. What will replace them? Will we have the revolutionary fervour of George Osborne? Although the snob has twattish tendencies, there are far uglier politicians. Or is it no longer on appearance, but on substance? Will that lead to mass artwork of the windswept Boris Johnston; Mayor of London? This shaggy-dogged hair style is exactly what students want!! NOT! It’s not so much the Tories that our parents were rebelling against, but the system. I think we’ve entered the new age of alternativism, and a feel good factor in British politics, just like America with Obama, we may have the Golden Boy Nick Clegg of the LibDems, will he become the new Obama, Che’ or even Winston Churchill after two successful TV debates? Only time will tell.

If however, Mr. Cameron wins the election, give it a few years and the Che’ posters will be out again. Unless of course, there’s a good picture of Gordon Brown in Beret…………..
