Here is a link to a video of my swing, just looking for some general feedback. http://youtu.be/voMZH75yrXU

I'll give you the same feedback i had in a lesson a couple of weeks ago - like me there is too much action in your left knee.  it needs to be more rigid.  also your left foot spins out (like mine did) means your weight is on your heel. needs to more on the side of your foot

its worked for me anyway

Matt, Your swing looks good playing off 20.... could be a bit smoother.

Where did the ball finish?  It looked as if you were aiming left.

Thanks for the feedback guys, 

Michael, I do aim slightly left as I do seem to have a natural slice but it has become so much better within the last year.

You're not doing anything wrong. I'd possibly have my left foot splayed out around 45 degrees toward the target if you don't do so already, hard to tell from the angle. It won't spin out then because it will already be in that position. This helps with balance getting you're body through the shot too.  Active lower body and left side not a bad thing at all, very important actually. Check out these examples, they might be old school but they're all major winners and they all start the downswing with the lower body and an active left side, hitting to a solid left side. Note Arnold Palmer's and Jack Niklaus's left foot after impact. It looked ike you enjoyed the shot anyway Matt.
