i believe one's politcial views, that is if you had any to start with, change a bit as you get older, with experience, and having lived a bit can put a different slant on views you might have held as a student say. I know mine have, but i don't that we really should need to say right, left wing, what we should be doing is all pulling together in these tough times, sadly some seem to think that they are the only ones having it. I paid into a pension for a short time, and the reason was that shortly after started it was made redundant, and after that well it just well downhill.
