Times They Are A Changin?

It is a bit of a dilemma this election, but I personally have no allusions about what it would mean for me if the Tories got in, so there's no point voting for them on a whimsy. What some dissatisfied Labourites forget is that the Tories represent privileges to a small minority. It is highly possible that they would get rid of the NHS and the Welfare State (two British things that I am rather proud of, despite their obvious shortcomings). When Boris Johnson was elected as Major of London, I felt it was because people "fancied a change". But we are not talking about whether to have a different colour wallpaper or not. Voting is not about "fancying a change", it is a serious thing and sometimes it is unglamorous and about voting to keep another party out; even if those that you traditionally vote for have not been doing the best job ever. It's a free country, so you can vote for who you like. Vote Tory if you really want to, but please if you just fancy a change, stay away from the polling booths and go to B&Q instead!



A really lame and unnecessary ploy to get in a picture of some highly desirable Fornasetti wallpaper for some people who might fancy a change.
