Polling day

[panik]

It's another gorgeous, sunny day, schools are closed yet it's unusually quiet and still out there. One might even say, ominous...

*g*

Lawdy law, that European ballot! Was everyone else's as HUGE as ours? Do that many parties even exist? Wow. It was rather refreshing, exciting even. I'm liking this air of Revolution, like it a lot. Which is to say, at least I didn't have to spoil my ballot this time. :o)

our poll is on Sunday, voting the Flemish parliament as well!

Yes, it's that pesky democracy thing again.

The bludgeoning of the people by the people for the people. :o)

I couldn't beleive the size of the European ballot paper - I thought they wanted me to paper the walls or something!

I took Mum with me to vote, and couldn't figure what was taking her so long. When I asked her what she'd been doing she said, "I was drawing them a diagram..." Oh dear *g*

Oh dear

I laughed so hard I almost blacked out. No seriously, it all went dark, there were little stars. ::chortles::

That yellow paper was serious. You could tell they weren't joking. Mark struggled to get it in the box, we were all getting flustered. ::nods ponderously::

The first party that came round asking for my vote was the BNP - I don't think so.

I'm off to vote in a bit.

Voting is good. :o)

We went to vote at our usual polling station which happens to be my old primary school.

The janitor was standing guard at the door, bored out of his skull..
There were also two police officers in a van outside... presumably in case the voters rioted or something.... However, by the time we came out, having wrestled the ballot paper into the box,they had buggered off, very sensible I thought. Is boredom catching?

Heh! No need for police at our Polling stn, alas. Very quiet it was - but then we went very early, maybe things will warm up later? :o)

I think we are in for some interesting results in a few days time.

[gillyp.livejournal.com]

Bloomn' well hope so!

Ah yes. We had the itty bitty lilac local one and the HUMONGOUS yellow one with the parties I've never heard of.
Could they make it any bigger?!

But 'tis done and I look forward to Labour's thrashing.
(she said hopefully)
:o)

Well I swore I wouldn't let politics

get in the way of a good election but I truly hope the Tories get a well-deserved thrashing too. I harbour no love for Labour but I loathe the Tories. I'd like the slimy Lib Dems to get a good kicking too, the whole damn lot are a shower of bastards imo.

Yup, we should get rid of the lot of them!
They're all out for themselves. £65,000 a year isn't enough apparently. I'd be more than happy at that!

Let them clean their own moats!

Revolution baby! Yeah!!!

Re: Well I swore I wouldn't let politics

[luicat.livejournal.com]

And build their own duck islands!

A revolution sounds really good right now. Start again from scratch - yep indeedy!

Ooh, you're getting me going, I'm coming over all bolshy!

Re: Well I swore I wouldn't let politics

[luicat.livejournal.com]

Excellent!
We need Foxy, sorry, Wolfie and the Tooting Popular Front.
Power to the people!
