I've been having an argument with a former colleague of mine today via Facebook. He's a full time trade union official, party activist and labour county Cllr in Nottinghamshire.
I've been asking him all day (as I repeatedly do to slacker as well) to convince me why I should vote labour rather than keep telling me why I shouldn't vote Tory (or UKIP for that matter). His eventual response was that because I wouldn't blindly accept his red is good blue is bad reasoning I didn't actually WANT to be convinced.
Strikes me as a slightly strange platform on which to run an election strategy!!
