Better Liars Needed

You can just feel it; some people are panicking with polls suggesting that the Conservatives are in the lead to form the next government. It is an unpleasant thought, but so long as they do not have a majority, there is not really much to worry. It is very likely that a minority government will not last a full term; eighteen months seems like a ballpark life expectancy. With all the constrains of a minority government from parliament, particularly when none of the other parties agrees with the Conservatives on major policies, it is unlikely that a Conservative government will accomplish much of anything. Working with the other parties is simply against their basic principles. The only real concern I have is another election in late 2007. I am not against lying and promises, I love fictions, but what this election shows is that none of the parties does it with any fun. Dull lies are just so, well, boring.
