No, I know we didn't get voting reform or an elected house of lords or boundary changes.... Politicians: just as likely not to work against their vested interests as the rest of us.
I'm still livid about that.
So, here are my general election preferences in an ideal world:
1. Sandi Toksvik (oops! the Women's Equality Party's not ready... yet)
2. Nicola Sturgeon (oops! the SNP aren't standing outside of Scotland: I'd be interested to know how many other "ScandiScots" are actually not in Scotland, or Scottish, at all)
3. Green (whoever that might be in my constituency: they've not knocked on our door) (and they won't win--not even in the local elections)
4. Arghhhh! I swore never to vote Labour again, when Blair became leader; I swore never to vote for our MP again when he didn't stand out against the end of the educational maintenance allowance.
4a. LibDem
4b. Labour
Locally, I suppose it's a withered Green.
