Are we facing terminal collapse?

Ok, so, well, what can I say?

Since the General Election I have on occasions been hammered by some for ‘banging on’ about The Labour Party. For ‘not giving the coalition a chance’. For ‘agreeing to disagree’ (something I would never do). Yet today I open the media to discover that The Labour Party (more specifically the poor downtrodden electorate) have now ‘punished’ Cameron’s coalition and almost wiped the floor with his chum Clegg.

The Liberal Democrats, once the doyen of local government have now practically been wiped out.

The Conservatives, midway through the current term, have been humiliated beyond belief.

My money is on Boris Johnson (Conservative) winning the London Mayoral election (at the time of writing). This will at least given a little crumb to Cameron’s shattered Conservatives.

But where it matters, in the rest of the country along with councils in the South East there is no question that the message is clear;

Clegg has to go, and go today. Cameron, if he continues to ignore the electorate, then he should consider his position and take appropriate action before the nation faces terminal collapse.

Politicians, by nature of their role in society, are here today and gone tomorrow. If you continually ignore the wishes of the voter, of the general public, then ‘tomorrow’ will come round a little quicker and one’s life at the top of the heap is terminated somewhat cruelly and abruptly.

Since writing this blog, Boris Johnson was confirmed as the new London Mayor in a tight election result of 3%. The Labour Party have wiped the floor with the coalition partnership gaining 823 councillors nationally, as the Tories lost 405 and the Lib Dems lost 336. We are happy with the message and now The Labour Party seem back on track for a General Election win.
