Zimbabwe will laugh at us again

Further to my earlier comment, regarding the postal voting farce, the poor state of our democratic health has again been exposed with regard to the conduct of our polling stations. The record turnout was entirely predictable, so how could any of the following situations have been allowed to arise.

1. Polling stations running out of voting papers.
2. Out of date electoral registers.
3. People unable to vote after queuing in the rain.
4. Insufficient polling booths.
5. Insufficient staff

What a shambles. An unelected prime minister, an unelected second chamber, fraudulent postal voting, people unable to cast their votes at polling stations and tens of thousands of voters unrepresented due to a ridiculous electoral system. An unelected cabinet minister Peter Mandleson is currently on the television trying to explain why the party with the largest number of seats and the largest percentage of the popular vote should not form the government.

Does it make you proud to be British?
