i truly never thought i would ever say this but I am seriously considering not voting. I have voted in every Local and General election (apart from a couple of Locals where I was unexpectedly out the country) I have been eligible for and this time round quite simply NONE of them deserve it. I wish we could also have a negative voting system so that rather than having to choose which party we want in power we could also vote for the party we don't want in power but then I suspect it would be the party with the smallest number of (negative) votes that won.
