The Great Divide: Intelligent Politicians vs.. Stupid Voters

As the election in Britain gains momentum, the two big parties make one thing clear to their faithful followers (and everybody else): Vote for us because we are the Messiah come again endowed with unearthly intelligence, whereas you are only stupid as stumps and don’t even understand how to vote.
Were you looking for a future? Did you expect any useful programs from either Labour or Tory? Over the last weeks you should have learned better. Both parties prove that they are good at only one thing: Scare mongering. The level of intellect of Cameron’s and Brown’s utterances has descended from the ridiculous to the outright insulting. If LibDem’s Clegg (yes I finally am able to remember his name as opposed to three weeks ago) admitted to addressing 10 year olds in the TV debates, he maybe should have added that this was for the benefit of Cameron and Brown in the hope that even they might understand him.
With the surge of LibDem popularity, Labour and Tory showed their true colours immediately by starting a concerted lament of scare mongering rumour. Cameron claimed that a hung parliament would mean the immediate bankruptcy of Britain. What balderdash, the bankruptcy of Britain was declared by the housewife now Baroness Thatcher. It is, undoubtedly, the major achievement of the Tories since their existence.
Labour on the other hand lashed out at the immense cost to public service if the LibDems went through with their program. As usual, Labour does what it does best, buying votes. But why normal voters should vote for any politician, workshy shady individuals living off the welfare they are handed out by the state (and constantly abusing it) goes beyond me.
Both Labour and Tories did their best magician’s tricks to conjure up the evils of a hung parliament. If they keep on going like that, London’s streets will be filled with moaning spectres roaming the streets by the time this election is over.
What both parties do is admit that they lost the election already. They admit that they are incompetent to govern and are afraid that a second party might be there to witness it firsthand. We all know they are too stupid to work (otherwise they would be doing a descent job in the industry), how much worse could the confirmation by a third party be than the knowledge of utter incompetence?
Will the LibDems do any better? If they would get a majority (which is highly unlikely): Doubtful. They are, after all, lazy workshy shady individuals called politicians like the rest of the rats running for the large and small established parties. But at least they go one idea right: This country desperately needs democracy. Real democracy means that you get a chance to vote for the party or person you want and they have a chance to get to parliament without the outcome being pre-fixed by the unholy Labour-Tory bedfellows of the last 100 years.
What is there to do? Well, for one, remember not to vote for any of the fraudsters currently living the high life at our expense in Westminster. In any other country they would be charged with organised crime. Here, they stand for election again. Chuck them out, all and sundry. Go for the independents, the small parties, the LibDems, to head off the worst: Another Labour catastrophe or one more Tory free for all. And make no mistake, even under the current undemocratic mobster rule, any seat can be overturned if you go out and cast your vote.
If either a Tory or a Labourite opens the door to Downing Street 10, watch the TV. You may watch now what happens to Greece, and there will be a repeat performance, this time by Britain. A hung parliament now is the only way out of the crisis, the only way into a democracy, and the only way to a functioning economy. Switzerland has gone exactly that way a hundred years back. If they could do it then, Britain should be able to do it now.
The Daily Mail recently called all politicians fascists, pimps, drug dealers, arms dealers, and prostitutes. Well, they didn’t quite call them that, but they ascertained that a hung parliament in Britain would be the same as in Italy. As the above list is nothing but list of chosen professions of Italian parliamentarians, well. Far from disagreeing with the Daily Mail, I would all the same stop short of calling MPs names, wouldn’t you?
