Thursday is election day: go out and vote!
Particularly if you are in London.
Tomorrow the question is turnout !
Because in the last set of elections the BNP missed out on getting elected to the Greater London Assembly by 2% and due to the mechanics of the electoral system being used - there is a good chance that this time they might manage to scrape in.
A low turnout is one of the ways that we could end up with a knuckle dragger elected to help govern London. Now I'm not asking for your vote for a particular candidate or other to stop them I'm just asking you to vote for ANYBODY but them.
Put simply - the more people that vote then the more that their vote gets diluted.
So please - if you can then vote !
Cheers
and FYI
