Tories and Labour are hard at it blaming each other for the mess we are in, and at the same time telling us that they are the only two worthwhile candidates for our votes, one or the other.
This downward spiral has been happening for much longer than the present period of Labour control. The Official Opposition is now Tory and the two of them have been in total joint command, in one way or the other, ever since the war ended in the 1940s with alternate booms and busts the result.
This disastrous monopoly of the party representing the actual wealthy and those who think they are, against the party supposedly representing the poor, has brought about the near bankruptcy of the United Kingdom.
No wonder the Northern Irish, Welch and Scots, vigorously supported by Blair, Brown and all the Ministers and MPS from these countries, can't get out quick enough, as they sit making laws in Westminster for us to follow.
We English are left pretending to be Britons with the Union Jack, while they proudly wave their national flags at every opportunity, with subsidies from us to help them on their way.
They will never give any part of this power away unless they are forced to. Brown is now, at last, offering a watered down version of PR; take it or leave it. Cameron doesn't want it at any price.
Our only chance of breaking this tight grip over our nations' spiraling future by these two failed minority interest groups is by going for the Single Transferable Votes system.
There has never been a better time to do it than in this election.
