Yeah! lets be like China or Singapore where only one party exists or ever has a chance of winning not

Rather not.

But if you want to live in a one party state I'll not stop you from moving to Singapore or China.

My apathy? What do you know about my political activities? Nothing.

Au contraire, you state that you don't vote, which is all DG was commenting on.

If you don't vote then you may as well STFU... that is the prevailing mood from most people when I state I don't vote.

Or purple: exterminate!

Go and get a life you stupid c^nt.
Slagging people off on this board, without contributing in any way, just pisses everyone off.

Go out and play in the sunshine, you pathetic scrap of insignificance.

(you may hate me now, but in years to come, you will thank me for my sage-like advice - you tosser)

Spoiling ballot papers are just that. Spoiled ballot papers. They do not indicate in anyway dissatisfaction of our political parties.

There is a little trick you can get up to. Collect your ballot paper. Do not put it in the box.

The first part of the count is to validate the number of ballots cast equals the number issued. If you have taken yours away then they don't. This forces an instant recount. And then a sufficient number until the candiates all agree that the count of papers is at least correct. Only then can the real count begin.

Or maybe violet?

Au contraire indeed...suggest you re-read the post...start from apathy....

How disappointing. I was expecting this thread to be all about why we are paying to support the Prince Charlie (soon to be King Charles III)!

The heading on the beeb last night was something like "everyone pays 54p to support Charles"...then in the article it mentioned that Charles is paid from the profits generated by the farm he owns up the dutchie!

And anyway...show me a contractor who pays anything near 22% in tax and Ill show you a disguised employee!

Yes yes...and how will they know that the ballot was spoiled due to dissatisfaction of all the candidates?

Its actually quite a cosy little system...afterall they don't really want to find out that the majority of people think they are sleezy parasites.

So before you make really quite stupid comments like that I suggest you open a dialogue before making a fool of yourself.

Spoiling ballot papers are just that. Spoiled ballot papers. They do not indicate in anyway dissatisfaction of our political parties.

People like you - once again you know nothing about me nor my politics. AS for the Monster Raving Loony Party....which one? You see you didn't even know that this insignificant party had split into two. And you presume to lecture me on this subject?

All those denied the franchise - maybe I happen to think that only men over the age of 30 are allowed to vote.

As for owing...oh that is rich...what are you? Another 'either your with us or against us' maroon?

What a tosser. You say I know nothing about you. You quite clearly stated you don't vote, or at least you tell people you don't. That makes you apathetic in my book and "one of those people" who don't vote. I have made no other assumptions about you or your politics.

Spoiled ballot papers. If the turn out were 100% and 75% were spoiled then a clear message would be given. Especialy if we all wrote none of the above across them.
Monster Raving Loonies. Doesnt matter how many there are it would simply be a protest vote. Enough protests might kick other parties into action.
Limiting the franchise: If you want to be a fascist twat then just say so. Myself I have great admiration for those who have stood up for the right to vote and commited themselves to democracy even making the ultimate sacrifice to allow ingrates like you the right to do so.

As I said, stop trying to justify your failure to vote with some suedo intellectual idealism.

If you failed to vote then you have no right to lecture those who did either on voting or on current policy.

BTW I know I wrote suedo!!
