Local Election Day
According to the media it is 'Super' Thursday. Whoever came up with that idea really needs to get out more, there is nothing 'Super' about it.
Anyway here in the UK its time to cast your vote for the district / town council. You have just over one hour left to go and vote, so do it. Its your only democratic obligation.
For all those who just started complaining there is no point they are always the same, it is then your democratic right to go and spoil your vote. You may favour writing the words ' None of the above' across the paper.
"Oh but spoilt ballots don't count" said a right whinger. Not yet they don't but just think if there was ever a vote where the spoiled ballot papers outnumbered the votes for the winning candidate. Somebody would bring a legal challenge after all technically to win you have to get the most votes. So if everybody spoiled their vote politics would have to change whether in a trial by law or trial by media.
So vote or spoil your paper, you have to go collect your ballot paper, its a democratic obligation.
People have died in the past and continue to die for the right for one vote in a democratic election. The least you can do is switch off your computer and go vote.
Go now! Really I'm not joking. Now! Vote for me if you want.
