Not my guy

Neither of the people I voted for yesterday got in. Annoyingly the winning county councillor was just twenty-two votes ahead of my choice. Looking at the results map I see that every constituency I've ever lived in is represented by a Conservative. Thankfully that isn't repeated across the country as a whole.

Despite the result I've resolved not to let it rest there. I lobbied my MP a couple of times over the previous term of Parliament, and having introduced myself on Tuesday to my representatives at district, county and national level I will make my voice heard more than ever before.

"That's it for another five years," is a sentiment I will not settle for.
