Indeed.

Hence I wont vote in your poll..

Watching the soggy fireworks tonight?

Oh, the poll was mostly supposed to illustrate the divergence I hear from people along the lines between "We elected them, they should follow our every whim." and "If I was PM I'd sort things out by doing X, Y and Z."

And hopefully. Lilian's got me a seated ticket, so providing I'm back out of work by then I'll be there!

That's what it got me thinking about, so I'd say you were successful in at least one case.

For me, the trouble with either of the options in the first question is that I have to trust one of those two parties. And I'm not sure whom I trust less: governments or the general population.
