If you're British or otherwise eligible, don't forget to vote tomorrow! You can help keep the fascists out by voting for anyone else (but preferably not UKIP).

We have more-or-less proportional representation in the Euro-election, so you can vote for someone you actually agree with - I know who I'm going to vote for.

In the county election, it's more difficult. Not only does each county have its own issues; the party leaflets concentrate on who can or can't take control, but what I really need to know is who stands a chance in my particular division (ward, constituency). I think my tactical vote will have to go to a party that told whopping great lies at a previous Euro-election and still uses the irrelevant statistics and the dodgy graphs, which is really annoying. This is another reason First Past The Post is bad for democracy: people say "£*@% them, I'm staying home". Don't stay home! (unless you had a postal vote or something). Vote! Some people would rather we didn't get the chance.



In other news, I don't have anything original to say about this terrorist attack; here is [personal profile] vito_excalibur instead: requiescat.
