My optimism stems from hope that since whoever is currently in power is inheriting the deficit, and thus swingeing cuts to everything, that they'll be blamed for all misery, and in 5 years time a regrouped (and less terrible-decision-making) version of Labour will be electable again. But it is quite puny optimism, which involves quite a lot of despair and gnashing of teeth.
I'm hoping for some political reform and a more representative electoral system out of the arranged marriage, and then just that the nice yellow folk won't have lost too many supporters from canoodling with the Evil Ones to get it. Ahh well, we'll see!
The silly blue folk just need to accept that 23% of the vote should not only get you 9% of seats, and if they don't sort things out we'll just keep nagging them until they do. That's Plan A. Plan B involves sending them pictures of kittens with PRETTY PLEASE written underneath. We'll break them, given time...
