Have you voted yet?

[Mich the Tester]

Come on, vote BNP.
They wont get enough power to do any real damage, but think of the entertainment they will provide with a platform in Europe and all the fuss the other home parties will make.
It might make the current members at Westminster realise just how little they are regarded, but I doubt it.

Erm, no, don't.

But if you don't vote, you lose your voice. You can't bitch about something you choose not to partake in.

TW, this isn't a go at you, I just firmly believe that even if you don't want to vote for any of them you should still use your "voice".

I don't like any of them. We should have stayed hunter-gathers. I blame the farmers.

I don't like any of them. We should have stayed as hunter-gathers. I blame farmers.

Fair enough!!

If you want to do that vote Monster Raving Looney or some such, not BNP.

MRL just wouldn't cause enough of a stir.

The Neolithic Revolution was possibly a mistake. It allowed many more people to live on a given area of land, but at what cost?

I'm sure that's why Cain killed Abel: he couldn't stand to see his brother sitting around all day not tilling the fields.

Why no one should vote BNP ever.

I agree: if you don't vote then you will just be disregarded.

Unfortunately the Registration of Political Parties (Prohibited Words and Expressions) (Amendment) Order 2005 specifically prohibited the expression "None of the above" as a party name. I regard this as severely anti-democratic: the authorities only did it in order to prevent some of the voters from registering the preference that they wanted to, and they have IMHO no moral right to do such a thing.

Surely prohibiting a party from being named "None of the above" and having an option to vote for no party are not the same thing.

[DodgyAgent]

Yes, I will be going to vote, this evening.

I haven't decided who to vote for either yet but I think I'll be going with an Independant.... the rest of them don't deserve my vote!

CM you'll be voting presumably for the party with the prettiest rosette
