May 6 – we all get to go to the polls and vote for the next government of the UK. Usually I don’t bother; I really am not that bothered who runs the country, they are all useless.
However, despite having zero interest in the election and politics I love the election night TV. I’ll be up all night and fascinated by the election results.
Remember Chris Pattern, Shirley Williams or Michael Portillo? They all lost their seats at a general election.
David Owen’s SDP getting less votes than the Monster Raving Looney party!
John Major snatching back the keys to number 10 from Neil Kinnock when Labour looked sure to win?
I thought not; but I do and I am sure this election will bring many more amazing moments as the results are declared.
I can’t wait.
Better yet if we get a hung parliament we may get to do it all again a few months later.
Two election nights in the same year. Geek heaven!
