Climate of fear
Before the GE 2011 May 7th, the fear of voting against the establishment is there and it's very real. People has been wondering the secrecy of the vote; how their vote will affect their job or businesses with or in the public service; families have been wary of casting the opposite vote because of their family members who are working in the public sector.
When the GE 2011 is over, I feel suddenly the climate of fear has been reduced by a lot and people has been very vocal in their opinion of this government. It seems suddenly people are starting to understand voting is not that scary after all and the importance of that one vote. 
Maybe the fear has already reached the end of its affair and it will only take GE 2011 to reaffirm that preposition.
