Re: Blair's Britain?: Elections called for May!
I will be voting Lib Dem. Looks like a very close race. I will be actively campaigning in my constituency for Lib Dems. It is a marginal seat for Labour and traditionally it has been a conservative seat. I would rather see Conservatives win and Labour lose this seat as our current Labour MP was very pro war and obviously I had heated discussions with her on a number of occassions. Under normal circumstances I would have voted Labour but not this time. It is payback time for Blair's pro war policy. Moreover we need a British PM in 10 Downing street, not an American foreign minister.
Having said all that I think Labour will win the election with a very reduced majority.
The most interesting contest will be in Blackburn where Jack Straw will be defending his seat in a constituency with a large Muslim population.
