I am reminded of some song lyrics from the sixties:- The Who singing "Wont Get Fooled Again" which includes the words "Meet the new boss-same as the old boss". Also Bob Dylans words "Dont Trust Leaders"...etc etc.
I am getting old & incredibly disillusioned and there doesnt seem to be anything about to change for the better. I do like the idea of no one voting.
Saw a big yellow sign in someones garden this morning asking me to vote liberal"-is there a candidate?-if so i havent seen or heard anything from a member of their party. The traditional main parties Con Lab & Lib dont have any relevance. I will use my vote as a protest against May & her ilk but this doesnt seem a positive thing to do.
I would say I will be glad when its all over bar the shouting but its never over is it and neither is the shouting- a bunch of overpaid,underworked wastrels to a man/woman with no idea of the daily reality for many of the electorate.
The UKIP guy on radio 4 this morning was trying to make political capital out of the Manchester outrage, but i admit he had a point re the cutbacks in policing,prison officers leaving, and shortcomings in our border controls.
Thinking about history-there have been times in the past when the populace have said "Enoughs enough"-I would like to see the whole lot of them down the local jobcentre & some competent people running the country (dream on!)
