I’ll start with the biggy, the election of a new President in the
US. After eight years of Dubya, anybody is blessed relief, anybody except that strange Alaskan woman, who believes that the earth is a few thousand years old.
‘Faith’ it’s called, a bit like Bliars faith in the existence of Iraqi WMD’s. Back to Barack. I like him, and I hope that he does what he says he will, I admit that a tear ran-down my cheek when I watched him live on Sky News (Yes BBC News 24, you pixellated too much on Wednesday!!) but I couldn’t help the parallels with 1997 and the whole Newlabour thing, only to be let down badly!!!
The Liberal Democrats have a new President Ros Scott who I voted for and wish luck in her new post. Got to go to bed now, I’m going to the War Memorial tomorrow to pay my respects to all those who fell so I could vote.
