As a simple country boy, my view is that people disliked/hated/spat blood at the Thatcher years, Major took over, not a lot changed. So a number of people decided that Blair was saying all the right things (education education education?) so let's teach those self serving Tories a lesson, let's get Labour in.
After 13 years, people disliked/hated/spat blood at the Blair years, Brown took over, not a lot changed, so a number of people decided that it was time for change, however, there was no obvious or credible option, so we had our first coalition Government since the 1940's.
People are disliking/hating/spitting blood at the decisions the Tories are making, some of them borne out of necessity, many of them made without thinking of any alternatives. We have seen student demo's, NHS cuts marches etc, but no real display of feeling, the last time anything like that of any note has bee done, was the Poll tax riots.
So what will happen now? People will decide they have had enough of disliking/hating/spitting blood, and decide they will vote this current Government out, Clegg and the Liberals will never happen, Cameron and the Tories are making too many unpopular and ill thought out decisions, and Milliband and Labour are not seizing the chance they have to make a case for themselves.
But due to the feeling toward current Government, people will vote in Labour at the next election. Not because they want Labour, but because they don't want Cameron.
No anger will be directed, just walking to the ballot box staring at feet as they do, and so all the above continues, with different names eating out of the Downing Street trough.
