please, please - go and cast your vote today. If you don't, then you have no right to complain about what we get.

if you can't bring yourself to vote for any of 'em, then at least go and spoil your ballot paper.

exercise your right - people died to get it for you.

Mac, I would - I'd love to.

But I'm stuck on the wrong side of the country and won't get back until late tonight - too late to catch the polling station I think. I'll have to see what I can do. It's my own fault for being so damn disorganised - but you're right - people should exercise their right to vote.

If they put a box on the form that said "None of these candidates are suitable" then they could pretty much make voting mandatory, which I think would be a good thing. All this apathy and foregone-conclusion stuff would have to end, then.

I'm in two minds about mandatory voting; I think that - somehow - politicians should engage enough interest amongst the population to engage us all. But I suspect it's a vain hope :(

I slung together a quick site for some friends - www.spoilyourvote.co.uk (http://www.spoilyourvote.co.uk). I'm not going to spoil mine, but I think a lot of people will. And those numbers should be published.

oh - and be more organised next time! :)
