The state of politics in this country is something which despairs me every day. I really feel we don't have a valid choice anymore. I'm a Labour voter and I probably always will be, I grew up under the Tories and I don't want to go there again and I don't trust David Cameron farther than I could throw him. I would like to vote Liberal but frankly I always think they just say what people want to hear knowing full well they will never have to do anything about and some of their policies are just unrealistic.
Your point about Peter Mandelson is completely right, he's another one I don't trust at all and he's the Minister for Higher Education (under this stupid Business, Innovation & Skills department) which makes him basically in control of my career. Makes me really think Gordon's lost the plot. (And actually I do think he's a nice and intelligent guy, I just think maybe he's out of his depth, should have stuck to be being Chancellor!) However I really can't think of anyone I would prefer as PM. I think the whole expenses scandal just showed up MPs for the self-centred moneygrabbers they really are.
