Mr Tony calls the election....

And who am I to vote for?

Case against voting Labour:

The illegal war in Iraq
Claire Curtis-Thomas MP
Spin
Student fees
Sycophantic adoration of Bush
Ruth Kelly being considered Cabinet material
Simple disappoinntment at the squandering of real opportunity for change
I agree with more of the LibDem policies

Case for voting Labour:
Progressive legislation, in particular on gay rights
Investment in public services
Incorporation of the European Convention on Human Rights
The economy and its management
Better than the Tories
Michael Howard as Prime Minister
Lib Dems a poor third here last time, although have won the seat before.

Watch this space.
