ffuturesIt appears that there will be a general election on July 4th.
Stand by for several weeks of biased reporting and crappy coverage of any other story, unless someone can use it to discredit their opposition. At least it will be over reasonably fast, but coming so soon after the local council elections it won't feel like it.
