@ClarkeMicah @tezflynn1942 The power of mass abstention. You mean a British government being landslide winners with the support of 20.15% of the electorate?

No, .@tezflynn1942 , I said many times that I wished both sides could lose, and wished voters would discover the power of mass abstention

New neighbours have just started a VERY noisy #BonfireNight party, featuring (it appears) exhibition-standard #fireworks. It's a bit damp, but it turns out that they are proud owners of a marquee.
