When will the powers that be learn that British people really don't care about politics in the proper sense, to a really deep and unprecedented level nowadays?
The local council elections for England, Wales and Scotland last week really show that there is no real party allegiance anymore. Voters will vote for another party on a whim now, like to teach them a lesson. So much so, that there are now 157 councils who have 'No overall control'. Expect some weird coalitions coming soon!
Then there's the loony single issue brigade. This has resulted in, for example, Boston council in Lincolshire being controlled by an independent group wanting a bypass. I ask you! Is that going to get the rubbish collected and keep the streets safe from crime?
Not that I care that much about the main parties maintaining power. I mean, I have known for decades that it's all a waste of time. Unfortunately the careerists in the Town Hall and Westminster continue to peddle the myth that we need them. Hmm!
