Another election? Groan ... I’m with Brenda

-

DON’T you just love Brenda fromBristo­l?

She became the voice of the nation last week when a BBC reporter doorsteppe­d her to ask how she felt about another election.

“You’re joking, not another one,” shrieked Brenda.

She’s right. We’ve had a general election in 2015 followed by a year-long debate about the EU referendum.

Since the Brexit vote, we’ve had nothing but debates between Leavers and Remoaners.

Just to add to our joy in Scotland, we’ve got local elections pending, not to mention the debate around whether we should have another independen­ce referendum.

Bring back Broadchurc­h. More Peppa Pig cartoons, please. Anything but endless “suits” talking about what might happen if we don’t vote the right way.

I know that I will not fail toputmyXin­theboxon the day.

After all, brave suffragett­es threw themselves in front of racehorses to win me the right to vote, so I will not failinmyci­vicduty.

But please could someone somewhere stop pontificat­ing about it endlessly on TV?

Brenda, I’m with you – when it comes to elections a little goes a long way.

 ??  ?? Well said, Brenda!
Well said, Brenda!
