    I'm not going to vote in the next election ...

    ... as there's no one to vote for.

    Can't vote Labour as they're a bunch of incompetent koonts.
    Can't vote Lib Dem as they're a bunch of bed-wetting fools.
    Can't vote Tory as I don't know what the fook they are.

    The fringe parties are all loony.

    Hard Brexit now!

    I will create a poll so the contractors can have a say on who they want to vote.

        Go one better,

        Put your coat on, take a brisk walk to the Polling Station, smile but say nothing to the people wanting to know how you'll vote.

        Get your voting paper, go into the booth and write in big, bold, black pen THEY'RE ALL A BUNCH OF LYING CROOKS!!! all across the front (and back if you like).

        Then fold your vote over and pop it in the ballot box. Give the people a friendly wave on the way out.

        Non-voters aren't official, but spoiled papers are always counted, and included in stats....

        HTH.

          I don't think I knew that... it's a serious option. I don't trust any of them.

            I may not vote again or equivalently vote Liberal whatever they are called.

              The fringe ones might all be looney but there is little chance they are going to come to anything but keep the voice of dissent alive and well. Yes they are too focussed and too far that way but it is important they get a voice so us that can't be bothered voting for a min party can still have our voices heard of micro issues that bother us.

              Wasting a vote by not voting a minor party is letting the big ones think their policies are all fantastic and you agree with them all.

                  I'll be voting for Vince.

                  I doubt the big parties will stick proper candidates up against him anyway.

                    Indeed.

                    Cheer up a local independent candidate who cares passionately about local issues and morality by giving them your vote.
