Mar. 30th, 2011 08:43 am- Still finding it hard to be enthused about politics at the moment. Which...says bad things about those fanfic WIP's I've still got sat on my computer. Although the AU with Blairite!Cameron, Leader of the Opposition!Burnham and slightly more evil!Tories is coming along slowly, if only because I don't have to write Osborne as anything more than a smug face from across the benches.
Going to vote for AV anyway. It isn't PR, but it's better than FPTP.
And as for the people that are voting no just to kick Nick Clegg in the face...really? I hate Nick Clegg as much as any other disgruntled person who voted Lib Dem at the last election and regrets it, but still. Priorities, people.
If you vote for AV, then you can metaphorically kick David Cameron in the face instead. Or George Osborne. Or Nick Griffin (yeah, despite all of the arguments that AV lets in extremists and that the BNP will take over Britain, what the no campaign hasn't been mentioning is that the BNP support FPTP. Yes, really).
Also? AV makes Charles Kennedy and Caroline Lucas come togetherto make Captain Planet for events. How is that not a good thing?
...Yeah. Lucy + political!apathy = still about 20% more political than most of the electorate. *bricked*
- ...Merrill tried to kill me. Bloody Torchwood.
- Work's going okay. I'm getting the hang of it now, which is good. XD
