Reflections on the General Election

Is reflecting on a very weird election… the Conservative failed to gain an overall majority over the most unpopular Labour party since Foot. The Liberal Democrats lost seats despite surfing on a wave of popularity and polling above Labour and just below the Conservatives weeks before the election. Labour after years of medico governance, recession, war and scandal mange to hold off the Conservatives and after coming second in the General election still hope to form the government… FPTP is broken on all accounts, the political superstructure is corroding, we need to stop this decay through radical reform, we need proportional representation quickly followed by a General election.
