15-11-2012 12:55
Walking past the Wiverton road polling station this morning we were suprised to see that some people had already made their vote for police and crime commissioner. And here was us thinking nobody gave a fuck.
As the percentage of voters is optimisitcally estimated to be around 10% of the Nottingham population, it seems that most people recognise that whoever gets elected will have absolutley no effect on the behaviour of the goverments first line of defence. They'll continue to enforce the racist, sexist and classist policies of the goverment, and all under the guise of safety, security and protection of the community. The same community they harass on daily basis.
Another day at the polling stations pretending democracy works = another day where nothing changes.
