politics

I finally stirred myself into reading about the Alternative Vote and all that, seeing as how we're supposed to be voting on it in a few weeks time. I wasn't really sure how I was going to vote at first, given I hadn't read anything about it before now, and all I'd seen were some emotive billboard ads advising that soldiers need guns and armour, not an alternative voting system. I'm still not entirely sold on the proposed new system, but having read the No website, I certainly won't be supporting that bunch of whinging twats. "ooh it's a politicians' fix". Of course it is, it's politics, everything in politics is fixed somehow. I don't believe that AV will make a damn lot of a difference in the long run, but if it pisses on the chips of the No campaign then I'm willing to vote for it.

I'm sure there should be more noble causes than this, but sadly, there's not.
