The State of politics in the UK
Is not good. A propos Cameron's call for the repeal of a the HRA 1998 and its replacement with a British Bill of Rights, and his spat with Ken Clarke over this, MatGB comments:
"We're screwed, arent' we? To get rid of Blair's New Labour, we need to get people to vote Tory. How can we do that when Dave just hasn't got a clue and plays to the gallery?"
Indeed, given the present electoral system and especially given the current state of the liberal democrats which does not inspire confidence. However, my total abhorrence for Blair and his nasty policies has never led me to the conclusion that voting for the nasty party was the right way forward. I was frankly never under the impression that Cameron would do anything other than play to the gallery. So, no simple answers it would seem. What a surprise.
