Labour. One Year On.

Last year many of us went to the polls hoping that there would be some kind of change in UK politics. One year on and I read my diary entry of the day after the election – “Labour win but will it mean change? Feel despondent.”

The Slough of Despond continues and deepens as I watch a supposedly left leaning party embrace right wing policies, a media that is, for the most part, unable or unwilling to present facts and a populace overcome by the seeming unalterable state of both.

I do have hope but, damn, it is hard to see its spark some days.
