Local council elections! The second dullest of all UK elections! But never mind for the results are pretty cheering and make me feel a wee bit happier knowing that the country has, in fact, noticed the sheer shitness of the Coalition. (Though London still seems to want Boris as their mayor, I DON'T EVEN KNOW

This council election has mostly taught me that the National Front still exist as they ran for Liverpool mayor. Who thinks "Hmmm, BNP are a bit too progressive for me"?

Duuuuuuude. I didn't know that. That's a bit depressing.

On the other hand, the BNP did really, really badly. That's good news.

As you know, obvs. I just think the good massively outweighs the bad, far-right politics wise.

I think it's more that Londoners don't want Ken (though personally I would much rather have him than Boris).

I kind of adore the Nick Clegg looking sad tumblr. I like to think that every one of those pictures is him remembering what an awful liar he is and feeling REALLY BAD about it (unlikely but it would be nice)

HAHAHAHA BNP. HAHAHAAHAH.

And I would totally vote for a penguin over ... well, most candidates actually!
