UK general election May 2015

This is on Thursday. Probably not of great interest to anyone outside the UK, but it does seem to be heralding a real shake-up of the binary and pendular politics which have prevailed here for several hundred years. The catalyst for that change is Scotland, where a political renaissance and re-engagement has been growing steadily since the Scottish parliament was reconvened in 1999. Whilst being demonised and wilfully misrepresented by the two main UK political parties, and by most of the UK media, this "Scottish Spring" seems likely to spread. Here's hoping !
