UK election update.

OK, so it's against my working class DNA to vote tory, but Tony Blair and co took my guns away so who knows.

Just making some observations:

Labour still lead the polls by about 10 percent. Howard (leader of the conservatives) is playing the immigration card with some success. He looks too smug to me, always grinning. Frankly he does not look like the next Tory ruler of the UK. Thatcher always did. One took one look at her, and you knew she was trouble.

The Lib Dems are playing the Iraq card. Frankly ,they are supposed to not stand a chance, but the Iraq war is and always will be, intensely unpopular here.

Killing Iraqies to protect our oil and economic well being is not well thought of, nor killing foxes for that matter either. -g-
