Election night

It’s Election night here but I’m just exhausted from work.
NO time to think it through.
I have never felt so uncomfortable, uncertain or uneasy about any election.
Which to vote for?
Whether to vote?
I will feel bad whatever I do.
Previously, and all my life, a Labour supporter.
If I vote for them I will have in my mind the anger in 2003 and the feeling on the peace marches.
I will feel bad.
If I vote Lib Dem, it will feel bad because it will feel like a foot stamping, protest vote.
But they do have ideas other than anti-war that are attractive.
If I don’t vote, I will feel bad because people have died to get me this privelege.
Or so I believe.
Just a few more minutes, eat and then decide and try to feel good about it.
Almost certainly whatever I do the rich will continue to get richer and things will get worse for just about everyone else.
Oh dear.
I’m too tiredto think straight.
And as for the media coverage…
Don’t get me started!
