Strange Election

Strange for me, anyway - the first UK Gen­eral Elec­tion in which I did not vote for Labour, and the first elec­tion of any kind in which I did not vote for either Labour or the Scot­tish Social­ist Party.

Strange too:- this is the first elec­tion during which I am with­out a tele­vi­sion, so it’s Radio 4 until the early hours instead of Peter Snow waving his swingome­ter all up in my face. Won’t be the same with­out him.

  1. i found it very ineter­est­ing that there were no labour, tory or lib dem can­di­dates on my ballot paper and yet accord­ing to the bbc web­site today, labour has won by a huge major­ity in the east end

    mmmm, not really sur­pris­ing that labour got in again though, the slightly lesser of two evils - i will say that if i see any footage or photos of that smug bas­tard bush con­grat­u­lat­ing the other smug bas­tard blair, i may shout loudly and/or vomit

  2. Not really coming to grips with the depress­ing real­ity of another four or five years of Tony Blair as prime min­is­ter. In some ways, if his daughter’s actions had been made public, then maybe he wouldn’t be here now, which would be a good thing.
