FINALLY I'M IN AN ELECTIONAL MOOD... and that's a good thing because...
IT'S GENERAL ELECTION DAY TODAY!... Polling stations opened early this morning and close at 10 o'clock tonight, after which votes are counted. A new prime minister
(or the return of the old one) should be announced by the early hours of tomorrow morning. If David Cameron wins, he will drive to Buckingham Palace where he will ask the Queen for permission to set up a new Government. He will be installed in 10 Downing Street and the new Government will be up and running by tomorrow.If Gordon Brown gets in again (no comment) ~ obviously not a lot changes.
But the result may well be a hung parliament, with no one party in absolute control... in which case I'm not entirely sure what happens. I think it means we'll have Gordon Brown as prime minister, but a watered-down coalition with Liberal Democrats having a say in everything, which will be interesting...CONSERVATIVE FINAL MESSAGE
This is a paid advert on Youtube today ...
David Cameron is Eton and Oxford educated... a bit of a posh boy but the housewives loved him... (till they saw Nick Clegg: see below)
LIBERAL DEMOCRATS
theoretically central; in today's climate the most left-wing of the big three. I like Nick Clegg, but not his policies of taxing the rich (I wanna be rich!) or scrapping Britain's nukes ~ which would only lose us a place at the world's top table...
LABOUR
ruling party's "road ahead" election broadcast
UKIP (no chance of getting in, but will accrue lots of protest votes; right of centre; wants Britain out of European Union)
GREEN PARTY (another good protest vote ~ as this points out, no matter who gets in tomorrow, nothing will change...)
and I nearly forgot! (you can tell how high on my priorities this lot are...)
BNP British National Party ~ anti-immigration and the like
