    Well fine.

    Now please kindly shut the fekk up about anything the incumbent party does that affects you, directly or indirectly.

    You had a shot at the democratic process and you chose to ignore it.

    If you are advocating a better system, let's hear it?

    Are you going to form some kind of radical, activist group and start a revolution? or are you just going to moan on and on about everything and tell us how you can't be arsed?

    You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

        Achtung

        Any abstentions or wasted votes can only help the incumbent, who should be reaping what he has sown over the last 8 years.

          No problem Bogey

          I get annoyed when people won't vote particularly when you think of all those poor sods in places like Zimbabwe. At least we know that - whoever we end up with in charge - it has been a fair election and we only have ourselves to blame if we don't like the result.

            I wish it were so Zippy but the postal vote thing is really out of control in major cities. Many immigrant families register postal votes and all their papers are passed up from the head of the family, to the head of the community, etc. So it's a bloc vote essentially, dictated by ethnicity or religion.

            Ken knows this. That's why he has assiduously courted (nay, bought) the votes of the immigrant communities in the inner-city areas of London.

              You're confusing me with someone else clearly. Don't mind being told to stfu, if I've actually opened my mouth complaining about it. But I've not.

              Anyway, seems I'm pretty much on my todd in thinking this is a pisspoor choice of candidates, on this board. Though I suspect there's a very strong Boris bias in these parts. But I just canny bring myself to vote for the bumbling bufoon ...

                  Sorry to burst your bubble but they're entitled to a vote, any way or means they want, like them or not. And politicians court voting blocs, that's what they do. If that annoys you, or comes as a surprise then please stop with the fecking lecturing on why I should vote and go do some research.

                    So vote for the gay ex-copper. Anything to get Mad Ken away from my council tax.

                      Considering it, just the Elton John support that puts me off.
