They won't admit it but we do and have made a difference even if it was not always in the way we wanted.
In marginal seats our vote was often much more than the difference between the other parties.
Yes I accept that the odious (I like to apply that epithet to Labour politicians) Ed Balls was helped to retain his seat by the intervention by Chris Beverley, but in Amber Valley, the region where we had our RWB fest the even more odious Judy Mallaber was booted out.
This anti democratic apology for a politician you remember was involved in the harassment of our fest and indeed was among the rabble demonstrating outside.
We and our country are well rid of her. She has no concept of democracy and was not fit to hold public office.
There were several marginal seats where our standing could and probably did make a difference, so in spite of our relatively as yet small numbers we have a greater influence than these numbers would at first suggest.
We are here waiting when the brown stuff hits the fan and the people realise that only we have the answers.
