And for the first time ever, I shall be voting tactically this election.
We’re in a new constituency because of boundary changes, but our previous MP is running in our constituency again. In years he’s done nothing for (most of) the people of this area and I want him and his paymasters out. They’ve done enough damage. Frankly at this point I’d not trust them to run a bath, let alone a country. I’ve heard all the arguments against the other parties though they’re not arguments really, are they? More like five year-olds bickering in the playground. Right now we need some grown-ups in charge who aren’t too busy trying to stab each other in the back to have time to try to improve the lives of the “average joe”. So I shall vote for whoever seems most likely to remove them. I’m really not keen to vote for someone on the basis of who they aren’t, but this time around, needs must.
