gollark: Wow, it seems like this application is just using XML as a really poor and inefficient JSON substitute.
gollark: I'm not actually old enough to vote, and in any case the only party which appears to actually care about this is the Liberal Democrats, who are not doing well in Parliament.
gollark: Yes. Democracy in action.

gollark: Er, act. Not bill.
