Two versions of the same shot - one in fetching plastic livery and one sleek and refined glass-wear. Which do you prefer???

Did anyone realise that there is a general election about to happen in 2 weeks here in the uk?? Why is it so quiet on the Western Front? I remember GE's during my childhood to be noisy affairs with hot debates, doorstep canvasing and massive feelings of uncertainty - will the blue witch get in for yet another term .... how much more damage will she be empowered to do. But then again, that was the 80's. Now all we get is three main parties (well 2 and a half) spouting the same rubbish with very little variation or vision. Clearly the labour government have shown that they cant really make a difference with their rather wanky 3rd way (or is it just the same way as all the rest???).

We need someone who is brave enough to say, "hang on, none of this is working, we need to change things drastically - try something that really is new" ... I urge any readers of this blog who feel disillusioned like me about the lack of choice in this current political climate to take a look at the Green Party Manifesto Even if you dont agree with the philosophy, you must admit it is so very refreshing that a growingly popular political movement is brave emough to suggest radical ideas in a manifesto aimed at the mainstream ... local currency!, citizens income! - this is amazing food for thought (and tastes to me like it was cooked by a michelin star chef).

I'm going to vote green, but then again, I'm a hippy.
