Afte weeks of campaigning and pedictions fom media the outcome is a bit of a supise fo eveyone and just shows that anything can happen. It had been geat to see so many of you asking staff who they voted fo and why. I also undestand that some of ou Sixth Fomes voted fo the fist time. Taking pat in national elections is a geat pivilege consideing the fact that so many people in othe counties do not have the vote. Being politically awae and knowing what is happening in you county is a geat skill and one that is looked fo in univesity gaduates and people enteing the wok place as it shows and ability to be independent in thought, which is one of ou pillas. So consideing this fact I would suggest to eveyone this weekend that they watch the news o ead a newspape to keep up with events this moning. T ah e P la h the Sa Message fom
