Mrs V insisted we watch Les Miserables last night. We lasted about five minutes - specifically - until Russel Crowe starts to sing, when it became depressingly laughable.

 This is why voting should not be a right, but earned.
	This is why voting should not be a right, but earned.Anyone voting because - as that woman said "he likes a pint and a smoke - that's what we need" should be denied the vote. CF "he's got nice hair".
When Blair's third child was born while he was in office, and he appeared outside No 10 in a shirt with no tie, sleeves rolled up and a mug of tea - Christ - that's what voting for the person not the politics gets you.
People who vote like that need to be shot.
