Vote CBA

I could go to the polling station which is miles away and tick a box next to someone that isn't UKIP in a futile effort to make sure they don't get elected. Or I could have another chocolate eclair followed by a nap.

I vote for cream filled chocolate topped choux pastry. Nom.

I find a postal vote solves all having to walk a long way issues. It also means I actually do vote because its hassle free. So I voted monster raving looney last Friday...

The post box is quite a long way away as well. Although I may have to go there anyway to send back some lovefilm DVDs.

Wouldn't the pastry get squashed in the envelope?

What I could really do with is an apple turnover.

Is that the dyslexic ABC party?

Days you can vote:

Thursday - UK and Netherlands
Friday - Ireland and Czech Republic
Saturday - Czech Republic, Latvia, Slovakia, Malta and French Overseas Territories
Sunday - every other bugger

Now why does the UK (and the Netherlands) insist on Thursday, a normal working day, so that people have to got out of their way to vote whereas practically everyone else uses the weekend so you can do it at leisure? For example, I will pop along to the papershop and get my papers, then I will go along to the cafe and have a relaxing breakfast and on the way home, pop in and vote. I see families take their Sunday stroll together and use that as an excuse to vote, why not the UK? BTW, that also goes for country and local elections....

It's a conspiracy against hard working people to make sure only the workshy lefty benefit scroungers vote!

My polling station was the local primary school, so presumably all the parents had to arrange days off.

They should keep the polling stations open longer - at least an hour past pub closing time.
