If the media message for these local elections, were that Tory voters are so exasperated by 10 years of Westminster enforced Austerity they will now even vote LibDem, I would agree with you.
Instead the BBC are letting the two parties that clearly lost,
claim they have a mandate that is opposed by all the metropolitan areas.
But isn't the point that outside of London's Famous London (well, the Westminster-ers Village) the electorate is broadly ignored, so the local democracy has a chance of at least gaining media attention in all this crapulousness to make the point?
