Our shattered national ego needs restoring

THANKS be to god the election campaign ends today. It has been one of the longest and most laborious election campaigns I have experienced in my lifetime.

The media pre-occupation with the leaders’ debate and the hours of analysis that followed the various debates has been quite nauseating and definitely generated a lot more heat than light.

At the end of the day politicians are prone to say whatever the electorate wants to hear and one should probably take most of what is promised with a large grain of salt.
