Today's the Day!

So this is it, 4th. June 2009. Election day. The day when people will decide who will be Mayor of North Tyneside for the next few years, and yes folks that could be me. I must admit that when I started out on this campaign I was fairly sure that I would not win and if I got my deposit back I would have done well. That was before what happened in Parliament and our MPs were shown up to be a bunch of money grabbing ya-hoos and our prim minister a useless dumpling. I am almost certainly going to get a good proportion of votes from people wishing to punish the Westminster lot. Of course when elected I will serve but I cannot help but feel, well, something that the vote will be influenced by the wrong things. What should affect the vote is John Harrison's, Linda Arkley's and Nigel Huscroft's past performances. People should refuse to vote for either of the two Nazi parties that are on offer just on principal. But most of all I really hope that people actually just vote. That people go to the polling booth and put a mark on the ballot paper even if it is to ruin it. A few thousand spoilt ballot papers would send such a message. Staying at home and watching the television will not have any impact at all. It will simple give critics power to say that the people of North Tyneside a lazy and the like. By tomorrow evening we will all know the result so for the last time in this campaign -

VOTE GREEN

VOTE MARTIN COLLINS
