So, in a months time, we are to have a general election. Conservatives, led by the Eton educated David Cameron, who will most likely asset strip as much as possible of the civil service (privatised again, oh joy) so that they can fund tax cuts for a small percentage of the population. Labour, led by the ever dour Gordon Brown, who few people trust since the days of Lord President Blair. Then there's the Liberal Democrats who most likely get 20% of the vote but return less than 9% of the MP's.
Unfortunately, I don't think the Monster Raving Loony Party is putting up a candidate in my district...
