Election Fever

Now dear reader, we are in the final two days before the inhabitants of this sceptred isle chooses it political leaders for the next parliamentary term (however long that term will be is anyone's guess). During the last three weeks I have spent much of my spare time poiunding the streets of Edinburgh delivering leaflets, talking on the doorstep and attended many hustings. One thing I do know is that the public has an appetite for change. The opinion polls have spent much of the time predicting a hung parliament. As the day gets nearr we are seeing the polls starting to predict the possibility of an overall winner.

I firmly believe that we need an outcome that gives a political party a strong mandate to deal with the situation this country is in. I am convinced that a hung parliament is bad for Britain, particularly at this time. We need a decisive team running the country and we need a fresh team. The current administration is tired and has run out of ideas. The only recommendation I can give to anyone in these last days is this, 'Go out and vote on Thursday 6th May!'

Thank you dear reader, and please do vote. Hopefully, I will get back to you on Friday when we can discuss the result.
