The arrest of Class War’s candidate for Chingford, Lisa Mckenzie

A little behind the time (as usual) I have at last finished upload my pictures from April 2015 on to My London Dairy.

April may only have 30 days, but it was a long month for me, with 45 stories on My London Diary and getting it all on-line has certainly dragged out. And out. Partly it was extra busy because of the coming election, and also I’m still feeling a sense of despondency over the election result which has made it hard at times to get down to work. Not that I think for a moment life would have been entirely rosy under a Labour majority or minority government, but that it would certainly have been a little more promising.

As we move to celebrating (perhaps incorrectly) the signing of Magna Carta as a milestone if not the foundation of democracy, it’s ironic that we also go into a new government elected on a vote of 37% under what must be the least democratic election system in the free world.

We are fortunate in the UK to live under a relatively benign rule, where – at least within certain limits – protest is allowed, and Magna Carta was certainly important in establishing the basis of the rule of law – at least for barons.
