It would be an exageration to claim that election fever has hit the country. But as I sit and write this, I’ve just had two near identical leaflets delivered through my mailbox. One has a picture of that nice David Cameron smiling at me, the other the equally lovely Chris Davies beaming out. They come hot on the heals of a beautifully designed, stirringly patriotic piece from the not so nice Nick Griffin. Come June the 4th, though, I along with other class struggle anarchists will make the positive choice of not voting.

There’s some thing disgusting about the way the politicians have been fiddling their expenses. It’s not just the abuse of power involved, it’s also the hypocrisy. They’ve spent their time telling us how much we’ve got to tighten our belts, put up with pay freezes and cuts whilst they’ve been merrily sticking their snouts in the trough and putting away as much money as they can get away with.

We all know however that the word has come to mean other things, in fact many people confuse its actual meaning for its most common usage – that of a derogatory term for homosexuals. The word however has over time changed meaning several times, having first been recorded in use in 1508 to mean ‘strange, peculiar, eccentric’ (2) For most of the 20th century however the term has been used to refer to effeminate gay males and others exhibiting untraditional gender behaviour; as an antonym for heteronormativity.

KFC’s decision to run a trial of eight halal stores in the London area has managed to raise the blood pressure of right wing cranks across the country and around the world.

Like the one before it, April’s budget has had the right-wing media seeing ‘socialism’ coming out of the walls. For the Economist (25/4/09), it’s “bash the rich” populism, with “soak the rich tax increases” punishing not just the 1-2% of the population affected by them, but everyone else who “aspires” to wealth (but will never see it).
