we regret to inform you that the election has been cancelled, meanwhile, here is a repeat from 1983

Shirley Williams and Denis Healey were on the radio this morning, arguing about tax. Denis accused Shirley of wanting to tax the rich until their pips squeak. I was amused.

1983! I remember the days when you could tell the difference between parties.

I was about 4 then, so can't remember it at all... Have very clear memories of the 1987 election, though.

I was a party leader in our mock election in my first year junior class that year. I lost, partly through being off sick on polling day.
