Now you concede not voting is a valid purpose?

Keep moving the goal-posts and eventually you're right

Ten candidates from varying political spectrums also gives us a choice. Left, centre, right, anti or pro Euro, etc. When I said I don't know if any will be very good, I mean as an individual in the job, because none of the candidates have been tried yet.

I'm left wondering what your definition of "choice" is.

My defination of choice would be genuine alternatives.

The idea of take it or leave it is not a choice. Only when I can actively choose am I granted choice.

The of idea or like it or lump it is imposition.

BR I voted - there was plenty of choice and I think that even if you are disillusioned with politics then it is worth voting. Not voting basically disconnects you from the process. Not every vote can change things - but today's results have put great pressure on Brown to go and shown public feeling.

We all should vote at the General Election. I am not a 100% believer in a two party demorcracy but it is better than a One Party Dictatorship.
