Walpurgis Night 2010

Awaiting the live debate between the candidates in the British election on the BBC. Labour, Liberal Democrats and the Conservatives. Really, there is no wonder that I favor the Liberals. They are, well, liberals. Of course I didn't know about them until the European Parliament and I could check out other parties that were similar to my own view. No surprise, the Liberal Democrats. I guess it's because my very centric views on politics that responds in these liberal parties. Not that I mind, they have very good politics. Mostly Pro-EU and EMU, social liberal beliefs but not too keen on high taxes. Then it differs country to country. The reason I support the liberals in Sweden, besides those other political areas, is there belief that we need nuclear power to be able to maintain our welfare and keep the last industrial jobs we have. The british liberals don't approve of nuclear power. Why I don't know, it's their decision.

Anyway, tomorrow is Walpurgis Night. A traditional student and others party day with bonfires lighting up the dark night and scaring away all evils and celebrate the coming of Spring. Then the day after it's International Workers' Day. The day when the labour unions screams their cry for justice they have done for the last 100 years and had their political allies in government for 70 of those. You think they learned at this moment, but no, they still support the same party whatever they say and do. Well, at the moment at the least as the people at these demonstrations usually have a higher age then most people so lets see how they look in a 40 year time. Younger people tend to be home recovering from a self-imposed illness as it is a red day aka a holiday. The labour unions should have thought on that before placing there demonstrations on red days. I will probably not wright anything on these days, just a heads up. Celebrate modesty and avoid falling in the fires.
