I've Got An Election

Well, it's that time again. There's a general election coming up soon and the campaigning has begun in earnest. For the next few months we're going to be bombarded with the different parties saying how they're right and everyone else is wrong.
The problem is that they're all shite.
Gordon Brown is probably the least popular Prime Minister Britain has ever had. That's probably because he's so inept.
Then there's David "I'll say anything to get your vote" Cameron. I cannot stand that man. He has to be the ultimate posh twat, but he keeps trying to make out he's an average, working class guy. He even uses public transport!!!! But only when there's a photo opportunity, of course.
He's so desperate to be Tony Blair, but he hasn't even got the personality to be Lionel Blair. He's just a twat on a bike.
Then there's Nick Clegg. He's the leader of the Liberal Democrat Party. I can't help wondering why they even bother. Even their own MPs say they haven't got a chance of winning the election. If I was them, I would have some fun with it, and make some outrageous promises. I mean, it doesn't really matter what they say because they're never going to win anyway. They could promise no tax whatsoever, a butler for every household, and a ritual sacrifice on every second Saturday of the month.
I really don't like politicians. They're all out to feather their own nests and really don't give a shit about the people they're supposed to represent. The recent expenses scandal shows that.
These nobheads, these so-called shepherds of our society, when they were confronted about their outrageous expense claims, all came out with the same answer: "We always operated within the rules."
Wonderful; they were operating within the rules. Of course, they felt no moral compunction about claiming for stuff like moat-cleaning, a duck house, and pornography. They didn't think to themselves, "Well, I know it's within the rules, but I'm supposed to be an honest, upstanding member of the community. So, I have a moral responsibility not to fleece the public."
No they just went ahead and claimed for these ridiculous things, knowing that while it was legally right; it was morally reprehensible.
How can a porn film for a politician's husband conceivably be classed as a legitimate expense? Was she looking for new ways to screw us all?
Anyway, I think I'm going to avoid television for a while. I don't think I can stand all the electioneering and arse-kissing. If I wanted someone to lie to me and make promises they won't keep I'd just get married again.
