Whats Going On? - Politics
Did say that at the beginning of the year I wanted this to be more than just a reocrd of gigs but that is all that I had been doing for a couple of weeks recently. Still there has been an election and I'm pleased to say that Tom Brake increased his majority in Carshalton & Wallington and Paul Burstow (both Lib Dem) held onto his seat in Sutton & Cheam. Amazingly nearly 200000 people voted for Tory Phillippa Stroud who was quoted in her campaign saying homosexuality can be cured by going to church!
Still I'm worried about the immient news that the Tories are forming a government. The nation is stupid I tell you, especially Londoners. Surely they can see how much London has gone down hill since Boris took over and I fear the same could now happen top the country. Get your luxeries in now before VAT rockets as obviously that is so much fairer than tacking someone who earns over 3 million a year a few pence more. (irony by the way).
At least we will get a referendum on the voting system as again it's much fairer that a party that gets just three percent less of the vote than the next party gets two hundred seats less. What a wonderful democracy!
