Vote. Vote. Vote.

Friday is the 70th anniversary of VE Day. Pause a while to remember all those who were lost in the Second World War and give thanks for its ending in Europe.

Tomorrow is election day in the UK - and if you live in the UK and didn't know that where the hell have you been for the last six weeks?? Mars??

I don't care who you vote for, (well, actually I do care - very much - but it's not my job to tell you who to vote for!!), but please - get out there and vote. Don't say "it's not worth voting because..." - it's always worth it. You might chose not to vote but "they" will always vote - the extremists, the haters, the bigots, they will vote. Your vote could be the one that stops them.

And if you feel you really can't vote for anybody - then get out there anyway and write "none of the above" on the ballot paper. Maybe if enough people do that then we'll finally get PR...

Working people and women fought and died so that I, a working class woman, could have the right and the privilege of voting. I will always exercise that right.

See you next week. Goodnight and may your God/s go with you.
