UK Opinion Polls as bad as Brazil!

UK opinion polls are proving to be as unreliable as their Brazilian counterparts. It was a long night which must leave the SDLP feeling awful, the Tories and SNP elated and Labour well and truly defeated. A fascinating night indeed with yet bigger decisions on "federal UK" (?), in or out of the EU etc. now in the offing.

Here my campaign to get the breathalizers back in use is progressing. They had "gone away for repairs" over a year ago, but our complaints have seen them finally repaired and returned. Now we wait to see if they actually get used. I have asked for monthly reports.

I am also campaigning at the moment for a landfill promise to be fulfilled. A promise at least 10 years old! Then also I am campaining for improvements in the regional hospital and two mini local hospitals to be finished and commence functioning. The system is on paper: local medical clinics in the boroughs (actually function precariously and for an hour or two a day rather that all day); medium level mini-hospitals which ought to cope with middle level severity issues so as to take the pressure off the hospitals, but neither existent in Patos have ever been finished; the regional general, maternity and children's hospitals - the worst of which is the general hospital which has been firing on two cylinders for years.
