A little prediction

[same_difference]

'Labour will win, with a decreased majority, but a significant majority all the same. This will be shortly followed by tax rises.'

Cynical I know, but as I've always said the worst thing about being a cynic is being right almost all of the time. This isn't the result I want, btw, but the problem with democracy is everyone else* getting to vote.

*Everyone else excludes those I respect, i.e. my friends.

The one thing I found most intriguing was a map feathured on the news showing that the big Labour strongholds appeared to be in and around London. To me I was struck wondering if this implied city business does well out of Labour whereas the larger constituencies across the country were split between Conservative and the Lib Dems and therefore feel neglected? Seems the general populace are disatissfied but the wealthy are okay thanks very much. Rather reinforces the idea that the current Labour government are the true conservative capitalists, no?
