between friends on the streets, family members or team mates after a
big game, filling the same function as a handshake. But the gesture

Ahead of this month's election, this is a chance to tell our country's aspiring leaders how optimistic or pessimistic you and your neighbours are feeling about the future.

Thanks :)
