Remember what a privilege it is to be included in this process. Is your dog able to vote? No. Not because he doesn\u2019t know his own mind, but because he is being deprived of that right in this dogist society. Our civil liberties are being infringed as are those of many around the world. It is the duty of every right minded human who has the privilege to vote to exercise that opportunity for good. Do you want to live in a world of prejudice and injustice? No, I thought not. It is up to you to do something about it. If you have not read what each party stands for then find out using the Internet. Don\u2019t use the silly quiz which has been running on Facebook, it covers very few of the real things the parties say they believe in and will lead you to making a bad decision. As a party the PDDP believes in equality for all humans and dogs together. We don\u2019t care what colour the coat is, or where the dog was born. We care about freedom, respect for each other and a society in which four legs and two legs stand equal. National boundaries are less important than justice, equality and protection of basic human and canine rights. Everyone should be able to live free from prejudice, subjugation and deprivation. Everyone, man and dog alike, should have access to basic healthcare, education and the means to support themselves. Today\u2019s election is possibly the most important in your lifetime and you do have the opportunity to make a difference to the result.<\/p>\n<p>If you still don\u2019t know which way to vote, then take advice from your dog and think about the way he lives his life. If you can aspire to be like him (or obviously her) then you won\u2019t go far wrong!<\/p>\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Well it\u2019s polling day here in the UK today and whether you are planning to vote for the Pet Dogs Democratic Party or any other <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/2015\/05\/07\/thursday-7th-may-2015-vote-its-important\/\" title=\"Thursday 7th May 2015 &#8211; VOTE it&#8217;s important\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12061,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10094","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-day-to-day-life","category-political","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10094","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10094"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10094\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12061"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10094"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10094"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10094"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
