Not classical - but music nevertheless. B*** impacts.

That would explain it. I'm shortly going to be moving from a solid Labour constituency to one where a pig wearing a blue (or purple) rosette would get voted in. Baiting the locals may be amusing...

And tempting, but not the best way to make new friends! Although I live in an unassailably Tory area fortunately colleagues (or co-workers of you prefer...) and friends are almost entirely not of that persuasion so it comes as a bit of a shock when blue views are voiced in conversation or discussion.

We wouldn't be moving there were it not for friends of like mind in the area.

Said baiting will likely be aimed at the local MP (email, Twitter) and any canvassers wearing the wrong rosette.

I there's me thinking I was virulently anti-Tory.........?

My whole life (from my constituency locations) a tactical - usually (but not on every occasion) a Labour - voter.

Maybe I'm going soft....... I am well aware we are predominantly a divided society. That said in time I think we need to work together - in principle its a good thing - but we need a different set in charge of the Government & their political machine, and a different outlook. Maybe wildly premature, but nonetheless a small part of me nurtures the hope there might be a principled person in that Cabal. Perhaps I'm concerned about what bitterness might do to me, or I just need hope to keep going..........

(Our local Tories already have our house as a "no-go" area for doorstep canvassing on their database - a bucketload of verbal ordure would have been coming their way. However, with an ageing membership (another cause for hope, over time) they can't field the canvassers these days I reckon).

I've decided that the only rational choice left for me is to never vote for any of them again.
