'THIS time next week we will have a new UK Government.'
It is almost certainly going to be led by Labour, but voters should send them a message that we want real change, not more of the same.
Many have said that the election feels oddly lowkey. That’s partly a result of the ridiculous first-past-the-post system, which means parties focus their resources on a relatively small number of target seats. But it also speaks to a deeper malaise in our politics, when there is little to choose between the main parties.
Of course people want things to be different. Yet few are convinced that things will be any better under Labour. They’re mostly hoping that surely, at the very least, things will stop getting worse.happened, but I remember the feeling of hope that came with Tony Blair’s landslide, after almost 20 years of Conservative dominance. It didn’t last, of course, especially with his role in the illegal war in Iraq, but for a moment there was a feeling of renewal.
