Sitting in a balcony area within a cathedral like building. Black and white checker floor pattern. Main floor below. Like parliament. They are announcing on the floor below that the government (Conservatives) will remain in control of the budget, but we'll be in charge of the treasury (or vice versa?). There is hushed talk among people I'm sat with on the balcony. Both excitement and concern. Confusion. I explain to those near me that something seems to have happened meaning that we'll be sharing power. However the bulk of the power seems to be in the hands of the conservatives, flough I'm not quite certain. It feels like something new and unprecedented. I'm eating a bowl of spaghetti and lots of parmesan which is making my mouth very dry. A man comes in and sits next to me and asks what's happening. He looks like a younger Michael Palin. I take him around the corner to a more open Part of the balcony/gallery at the end of the hall with a better view of the main floor. I begin to attempt an explaination though I'm uncertain if the change is a good one or bad.
