ROFL. Nice one.

Evade the question with a ROLF then.

I believe that's known as the 'idiot's defence'.

Advice

Don't bother with 2nd choice if you vote for either Boris or Ken, it's only if you vote for Libs down to the rest when eliminated that is taken into account.

try http://www.votematch.co.uk - it asks you a few questions, then matches you up with the candidates that are most in line with your beliefs. i only found it after i voted, and i wish i'd consulted it before, as it would've certainly changed my second choice if not my first.

give it a go, even the Clarkson reading simpletons on this board should be able find someone they're prepared to vote for. remember guys, you only have to write an "X", so it's just like signing your name.

I'd like to be arsed.

i knew it!

I can't be arsed...I mean I abstain from answering

Translation:
Don't Care - Won't Care - You can't make me!

Disappointed

I was half-expecting a witty reply...

In France, Italy, Greece, etc etc etc voting is compulsory. Are they meant to be less democratic than we are?

I thought in a democracy you had the freedom to make the choice and if that choice is to abstain then all good and well.

Well then, abstain your rights away if you will.

It's an all too common attitude in the UK these days. "Don't care, Won't Care".

A passive and docile non-electorate. What a dream for our lords and masters!

WHS.

You must support the democratic process by VOTING whenever you can.

I'm happy with the system, and quite keen to vote. Just the pish that's on offer putting me off.

That clear enough for you?

NO isn't clear at all.

You must support the democratic process by VOTING whenever you can.

Even if it means voting for the least of all evils, at least you have participated.

Do you not understand that?

As I asked before, what else would you do to change the system?

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 fliping lecturing on why I should vote and go do some research.

I choose to lecture on behalf of the poor sods who gave up their lives to ensure we actually do have the inalienable right to vote in this country.

If you chose not to vote, then you are abnegating that hard-won right.

Couch it however you will, to chose not to vote when you can vote is a betrayal of the democratic process.
