The Israeli Elections

It must be said that The Croydonian is a sound cove, and an excessive quaffing of alcohol with him would strike anyone as a night well spent. TheEye hasn't enjoyed one yet but intends to do so as soon as possible.

However Mr C has a post on his site today concerning how we all might vote in an election in Israel. Although unclear, his is the first graphic which shows a centerist arrow. TheEye in the second graphic has the arrow top-right.

To quote from Mr C: It is another one of those nifty 'how should I vote?' Electoral Compasses, care of those nice people at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

Our top blogging Man Of The Moment observes: Unsurprisingly, it thinks I should vote for the Likud, which is what I would do anyway. Can't say I spend a huge amount of time doing the test, so on another day I might come out more hawkish.

More hawkish, Mr. C? Probably. However seems that TheEye has apparently registered a willingness to slaughter the first born in their cots. That was not the intention but some of the questions were very twisted in favour of a preferred response.

Not a fair survey but an interesting one.

Nice of you to say so.

I must have been feeling uncharacteristically liberal yesterday morning. It won't happen again....

"There are no constraints on the human mind, no walls around the human spirit, no barriers to our progress except those we ourselves erect."

Lady Thatcher

"If you lead a country like Britain, a strong country, a country which has taken a lead in world affairs in good times and in bad, a country that is always reliable, then you have to have a touch of iron about you."

Voltaire

"Stand upright, speak thy thoughts, declare The truth thou hast, that all may share; Be bold, proclaim it everywhere: They only live who dare."
