The General election; a tale of two worlds.


So after the general election I took to Facebook to post this status; 

'Good luck to every nurse, student, family with more than two children, working person, and doctor. Good luck to the homeless, the poor, the Middle class, the lower class, the working class, to anyone on exploitative zero hours contracts or people currently searching for a job or looking to get on the property ladder these next five years are going to be ones of great sadness and hardship; as yet again a leader has been voted in not for the working people of Britain but for a rich minority, a prime minster in the last five years who has done nothing but raise tuition fees and stand in a one direction
video. 

And I also read status that read ' Go David!' 'finally a Prime Minister that will cut the deficit and cut the debt' 

However, these are not the status and tweets that really pissed me of. It was a few days later after
every true left wing had petitioned, tweeted and debated about the outcome of the debate and also the voting system (which obviously needs a complete reform). 

The status that really really really infuriated me was one that read 'I don't know why you labour supports are still moaning about the election results, theres nothing you can do about it now' There was then a  follow up blog post  called 'why you lefties are such bad losers' which went on and on about how we shouldn't protest and why we were so disgusting for graffiting a war memorial and that basically we should just let the tories ruin England because some rich tossers voted for  them. 

So let me tell you right now; this isn't the final of the X-factor or the FA cup final its something much  more fucking important than that, this  is the election this  is  whose in power, who controls our country for the next five years. This is a choice that could break this country and you wonder why we 'lefties' continue to go on about it? Its because we will not stand back and watch a rich  man in a very expensive suit take away our NHS or our human rights, its because we will not let our degrees cost more but  become worth less. its because we will not allow a democratic system that is not fair and doesn't actually display the ideas of the  public. We will not let the benefits be slashed so that the bankers can get bonuses and we will not let a man who's biggest accolade is standing in a one direction video run our Great country. 

As a 'sore-loser leftie' I have been taught that you fight for what you believe in and if they wont listen to your facebook statuses and tweets then you fight a little harder and you march in the streets and you scream as loud as you can!! because these fucking sore loser lefties stand up for those who cannot  stand up for themselves, we will not be silenced by bald racist men in suits and we defiantly wont be told that our voice no longer matters just because one election didn't go in our favour. 

So maybe that's the difference between the left and the right. Maybe the right may have just let it be, and walked away from the election with there head held high but still doing there back door deals. But us lefties we will not be silenced even if that does make us bad losers. But i would much rather be a bad loser than have a bad leader in charge of this country.
