Madam, As a young person planning to vote for the first time I would like to know what each of the candidates has got to offer younger people.

As a 25 year old I have been saddled with a National debt when I did nothing to incur it, and it looks like I will be paying for it for most of my lifetime.

Also, I am a huge supporter of our armed forces, and regularly raise money for the charity Help for Heroes.

Do the candidates think it is fair that a public donation charity had to be set up to help our wounded troops get the rehabilitation they need, when it was the goverment's decision to send them to Afghanistan?

Surely it is the government's responsibility to provide what our wounded troops need, but yet again the public has stepped up and donated millions.

I am interested to hear what each candidate plans to do for our armed forces, whether it is equipment they need or helping our wounded troops.

Charlotte Reynolds, Ross
