I've been on this planet since just after WW2 and every single government has let me down. Attlee managed to combine over-ambition with undue nostalgia, Churchill, Eden, MacMillan and Home (although he only came on in the 89th minute) were bone idle, Wilson started well then gave the country to the unions, Callaghan just sat there, Thatcher recovered the country from the unions but then gave it to the spivs and the shysters, Blair left it where it was whilst simultaneously inserting himself up America's bottom and giving what was left to an expanding public sector and its unions and poor old Gordon is just left sitting there staring at the wreckage which is probably fair because he was responsible for half of it anyway. We now have the absurd Cameron whose greatest quality is that he isn't Gordon and whose greatest drawback is that he is just another Europhobic Little Englander who will say anything to get the Daily Mail vote.
Actually, I don't think I've got any choice but to vote LibDem.

The tories and Cameron himself backed Falmer.

Did they? The Tories deselected several local council candidates for supporting Falmer, one in Woodingdean and replaced with those who were against. Two of the Lewes cabinet who voted with the Lib Dems against Falmer were Tory. When we were lobbying our MPs to support the private members bill, Tim nice by dim Laughton, wrote to me saying he could not bring himself to sign this as this was a Lewes decision. Although this was outside his constituency, just, I understand as MP for East Worthing and Adur, he could not see the worth although he went to school in Lewes, so no surprises there. I have since been told he was very much anti.

Laughton was in the year above me at Lewes Priory and was regarded as an obnoxious little shit 30 years ago.

Also just to make the point again many of the LDC types who were anti-Falmer don't actually represent Lewes wards.
