Being to the left of Woodsey means there might be many lanes of traffic to cross before I hit the hard shoulder.

controversial one

"Forget the hype. The 2015 general election is not balanced on a knife edge. Nor is it  “too close to call”. Barring a political deus ex machina, the only question that now remains is will the Tories manage to secure a majority, or will they be returned to government as part of a coalition or  a minority administration.
 
Labour’s hopes died this week. "

Article written by Dan Hodges.

Who he?

Glenda Jackson's son, former Blairite, supported David Miliband in the leadership election, voted for Boris in the London Mayoral election, now writes for The Telegraph and is said to be David Cameron's favourite columnist.

So, pinch of salt and all that.

Says the leftie, grind of pepper and all that lol

I've been entertained by Andrew's posts on here for 10 years.

I never once thought he was a "leftie".

Weird how you got that impression of him.

Not really, pretty easy to see to be honest.

I always thought Andrew was quite balanced probably slightly left of centre.  Not the worse place to be in the main.

In my harsher, younger, days I would probably have considered myself a libertarian but I now have come to the realisation that some people really do need saving from themselves for the good of everyone else, which has leant me more towards the nanny state lefty side of things.

But the current Labour Party are a complete sack of useless shit so if I had a vote in a UK election now I'd probably vote Green simply because shit needs mixing up.

Funny that, I feel like I am making the exact opposite journey from left wing to libertarian.

Just let everyone do the fuck what they want as long as none of it impinges on anyone elses ability to what the fuck they want themselves.

And can the Royal Family ASAP.

Bookies odds on a Labour overall majority at GE2015 have now moved out to 8/1. Tory overall majority 11/2.

going to be a fun few months working out coalition or not, and who might with whom
