One thing that should now be apparent to everyone but the lunatic fringes across the whole political spectrum, is that Blairite government must go.
Never before in this country has it been possible for a person to be arrested, tried, and convicted for reading out a list of names of British soldiers killed in the line of duty, in front of the national memorial to our war dead.
This, to me, represents the death of free speech, and the right to peacefully protest (please excuse the Shatnerism), and is, IMO, the prelude to some even nastier legislation depriving us of other basic civil rights.
The worst thing about this is that these policies are consistent with the actions of a fascist regime, yet there are still many who support Blair because they are scared of a right wing government.
David Cameron appears, to me, to be another Blair, concerned with the promotion of his image and personality, and woefully uninformed as to the issues that need addressing.
It seems likely that Labour and Conservative will move closer together, with the poor LibDems crushed between, and if this is so, choice will be more limited than ever before.
Proportional representation will still be avoided by both main parties, as the only ones that want it are those who could not expect to govern in any other way.
