I find it funny that Israel is now being bandied about here as the 'face' of proportional representation. The fact that you can have a Likud PM, a Labour/left foreign minister and all other hoi polloi that you have to 'make your bed with' is certainly nothing to be admired! I hope that Cameron goes for a minority admin and let the others stew...<br /><br />There's actually some sunshine today.

Although I do agree with you about the disgusting British weather!<br />Regards<br />SteveUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09041263810357811909noreply@blogger.com
