british politics sux these days. the big 3 parties are all so pointlessly vague with really transient policies. no one votes for the decent little ones because they vote tactically because they are scared one of the big 3 they dislike will get in - even though they are al the fucking same these days |

Anyone that wants that much power has to be fucked up. So by default, politicians are bad. |

He was a meglomaniac like all the other soviets, Karl Marx thought the Russians were backwards crackpots anyway. The closest any country came to Marx's vision was Britain before 1979, then the workers were really calling the shots. |

I wouldn't say so.. at least not for me. if you don't vote, that says you don't care if you vote blank that says you don't care much for any of the current electable parties. I also don't see myself voting blank in the near future with frp being so big.. I'll vote for their biggest enemy on the left side. it'll probably be ap or sv. however, this doesn't mean I vote FOR ap or sv, it means I vote AGAINST frp (there should be some option to vote "NO!" to a party instead of all choices being positive "YES!"es). |

Seconded. I also vote for the one in the far left (not because I'm leftie). See? We can agree in the trascendental things! |

In our country, spoilt or "non" votes are recorded (seperately from people who didn't turn up). The political motivation it shows is that you're not, as politicians would like to believe, too lazy to go. Large numbers of spoilt ballots would concern them as it would demonstrate that if there was a new party (or an existing party changed their policies) to represent most people in the UK, they'd be fucked. I don't know what it's like abroad, but with Labour getting 40% of voters (and that's just the ones who bothered to turn up) being called a "landslide", it would suggest that the vast majority of people in the country are being ruled by a party that they don't want, which seems a pretty odd form of democracy. |
