UK General Election year - NOT amateur radio

Every 5 years (at least) the UK population holds an election to choose a governing party. .

We are expecting one this year.  For many years the government has been by the Conservative Party, which likes to tax less and people themselves decide how they spend their money. In recent years, Covid has cost a lot, so taxes are higher than they would like.

According to the polls, the opposition Labour party should win.

Politics has a habit of throwing surprises and it would not surprise me at all, if the outcome, in the end, is far closer than many suggest. All parties have good and bad things.

My politics tends to be near the centre.
