O/T:- Election

[Woodypie]

Anyone disillusioned with Westminster politics (as I certainly am) should just ignore what the parties are promising and vote for a good local candidate who you think will represent your area the best.

I know it sounds obvious, but as an example: I know 2 current Labour candidates personally, both standing in this election. 1 is a Notts fan standing in a Nottingham seat who I know cares deeply about local issues... whereas the other is from London and has been parachuted into a seat in Staffordshire to further their career and tow the party line. The first I would vote for, the second I most certainly would not. I am still undecided but my vote will entirely be based on the strength of the candidates, as I think the best way to improve the country is to get rid of the careerist Westminster bubble politicians and replace them with decent people who will actually represent and fight for their constituents - whatever their party.

In the interest of balance, Ed Davey told me that he is a Notts fan. I wouldn't vote for the Lib Dems though.

Ha ha it was the caring about local issues etc. that would make me vote for them... but I didn't know that about Ed Davey!

So was Harold Shipman.
