Power to the people!?

Garage Joe

A lot of people I know are a bit worried about that Cameron one's idea. "Garage Joe?" they ask, "Does this mean that they will sack our well trained and educated headmaster and replace him with that bloke and his mates from up the road, the ones with scratter dogs and kids who go out unleashed?"
"Relax!" said I, "No ordinary people are going to get any power whatsoever, the elephant in the room is the term 'businessmen' for it is they who will inherit the loony religious academies and expell children for being Deaf schools, hospitals, and prisons."

"Garage Joe", I ask, "If I want to buy a closing down pub, will I get Government funding for it and will I have to allow the public in?"

"Dodgy Dave," I say. "Maybe I missed a page, but could you please explain to me how adding an extra tier of local busybodies and corporate chancers would create the 'smaller government' you keep saying we all need?"

My local Liberal Democrat candidate goes by the name of Alistair Cameron - so he is a coalition of the 3 main English parties in one person!

"Garage Joe," I ask, "But what about his other fantatstic idea that he will give the married and those in civil partnerships 150 gb poonds a year tax break?..... Surely that's a bliddy marvellous use of £550 million?"

"Power to the People" I've heard that promised before in past elections where it was promised that people would have the power of choice, can't say I've noticed that ever happened. The Gov't and those behind them who are the real decision makers would never allow people to have the power, people are controlled so that in the majority they become sheeple. Yes we have the freedom to vote, once someone's chosen the political machine takes over and all choice is overridden

Yes, well it certainly encourages people to get married, as a man could leave his wife and take the £3 a week to a new wife (and vice versa, of course).

So far I've had only one flyer through my door, from the green party, no-one else appears to be bothering

I'm in what I think is now a marginal..... so we've had Labour and Conservative so far..... but don't think we've had Lib Dems

........Have to give him something Baz, from personal experience, he has a real sense of 'presence' and what appears to be a genuine commitment and belief.... He could have been the best Tory leader post Thatcher if he hadn't 'jumped in ' too quick' . (Not that I would ever voted for him!)
