Two weeks until voting begins. Another day, another piece of self-imposed disappointment. Life slowly ebbs away doesn't it. My coverage of this election hasn't been as exhaustive than I had originally intended but then, I ain't a professional journalist. I have a terrible job to go to.

Day 26 or so- Week 3.5 – Leaky, Leaky.
So, things have moved swiftly along in the election. In that absolutely nothing has changed. Regardless of the parties policies, their behavior in the lead up to the election or basically anything at all - nothing will or can change. Theresa May can suggest there are boy jobs and girl jobs.

It is a long time since my student days, days which were … Continue reading New Perspective Required. Apply within.
