Sick to my stomach

The view at 2300hrs

I am watching the BBC coverage of the election. Only the North East has yet declared, but the BBC is predicting that the BNP may have won a seat in Yorkshire and the Humber.

I am a grown man, and I am literally fighting back tears. It gives me such a feeling of deep shame to think that our country will have any representatives who are Fascists.

The failure of mailstream politics in general – and, if I’m honest, Labour in particular – is laid bare here.
