Election of British Prime Minister not Free and Fair... Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

...At least according to mad bad Bob Mugabe

BBC

Zimbabwe TV slams UK poll 'fraud'
Zimbabwe state media have criticised the recent election in the United
Kingdom, saying it involved fraud.
Zimbabwe Television's (ZTV) Friday evening bulletin spoke of "a lack
of transparency, suppression of media freedoms and fraud" in the UK poll.

International observers have accused Zimbabwe of fraud and
intimidation in elections in recent years.

President Robert Mugabe's campaigning has frequently singled out the
UK and Prime Minister Tony Blair as enemies.

The ZTV report interviewed members of the public who said Britain had
no right to tell African countries how to run democratic elections when the
UK poll was characterised by lack of transparency.

Black boxes

Similar allegations were made in the Saturday midday bulletins.

The reports identified the UK's use of black ballot boxes - as opposed
to translucent ones used in Zimbabwe - and the use of postal voting as
problem areas.

The conduct of the UK election "raises a lot of questions about the
democracy preached by the British," ZTV reported.

Thursday's election in the UK secured a third successive term of
office for Mr Blair's Labour Party, although with a smaller majority than in
the previous two elections.

Semi-restricted democracy in the name of pragmatism.
