Over the last few day's i had given considerable thought into not voting in the Local

and European Elections, politics is a subject that i take seriously and have alway's

felt comfortable in argueing my point of view with people of differing outlooks! Like

everyone else, i've been sickened by the daily deluge of media stories regarding the

wanton greed of a significant number of politicians of all creeds! However, today is

the 20th anniversary of The Tiananmen Square Massacre, a reminder that people's of

the world have forfeited their lives, hoping for a taste of what i take for granted!

So i ended up voting 'tactically' which is a first for me, i did so in the hope that enough

Labour MP's can grow a backbone and put in motion the final day's of Gordon Brown's

 Premiership! Tonight there is the very real prospect of Labour finishing FOURTH in the

 share of the vote in The European Elections behind the Conservatives, Liberals & UKIP!

Although this was a tactical vote, it was borne of the absolute conviction that the next

Conservative Government has to have a credible Opposition and not the depleted shambles

that marked the majority of their last terms in office!

Be England what she will, with all her faults

she is my country still!
