Oxymoron

Oh dear. The possibility of putting faith in politicians, seems a terrible ask.

Especially as the media is so keen to remind everyone - the men who are now taking office are terribly young and inexperienced but it wouldn't do to be agist.

No what is really starting to annoy me is how you vote for something that you believe in, be it PR, or controlled and capped immigration, and you pick your side wither it be Labour, Tory, Liberal Democrats, BNP, Greens who ever it might be... but how on earth do you know they'll keep to their side?

I hate to divide the country between left and right - since I fail to see a socialist party, and yet there seems to be several fascist ones, but to keep it simple for myself as much for anyone else - why on earth when you vote for the left, do they join forces with the right???

I mean its like the Obama thinking Palin might have a sensible suggestion on foreign policy (or really any policy), or Sarkozy deciding that poor old S Royal deserved a second chance - it is daft.

And the brave face that everyone has stuck on it - that united will forge a greater Britain is lovely rhetoric but is asking a terribly difficult leap of faith, that we must believe the dread Tories the ones who thought Thatcher was a good call. It simply goes against principals of sense and history to trust a word out of their mouths.

I hope it does work, I really do... but unless Clegg can push through PR and stop that absurd cap then he really will end up looking like the 'joke' that his new buddy previously called him.

On a happier note, Mandelson, is gone... (for now)
