The big debate, or the big disappointment

My father and his business partner have been waiting for over a year for a big meeting in Sweden to happen and were finally granted an audience of two days this week. Of course, now that they're there, they can't get back. The scale of the disruption is unimaginable, really. As if Iceland hasn't already done enough damage in the course of the recession! ;) Don't know what's going to happen to Dad and Graham, though, even if the prospect a ferry journey wasn't rather more of an ordeal than staying put, the ferries are chockers.

Anyway, I thought if I'm really going to continue to write about the election, I ought to comment on last night's 'debate' )

Democracy and crosses in boxes

Is anyone else super excited about the election? We only become a democracy every four-five years, and I've been practising my Xs for the last five years, just waiting to make a difference.

Cut because talking about politics in the pub is not the done thing and LJ is a bit like a virtual pub...only with out beer ;) )
