The much awaited revolution, starting in Sleaford & North Hykeham appears to be more of a quarter turn as a full revolution in this instance. The cleansing flail of righteousness in the form of a resurgent UKIP was weighed, measured & found sorely wanting on Thursday.
Admittedly not as wanting as the Limp dumbs & Liebour whose showing was extremely poor, along with the voter turn out at 37%. The Tories easily held their position against the challengers, but in the long run it's not going to help the people of Slea & N Hyke.
Because of their apathy, the staus quo is maintained & as such the creeping "enrichment", coming to these shores, will eventually encroach & smother these complacent denizens in their rural idyll. Ah well, there's no cure for foolishness.
