What do you do if you dont like any of the candidates?


Im increasingly of the opinion that your vote really doesnt mean a great deal...its a vote to allow the winner carte blanche to do what the hell they like... like make war on other countries under questionable pretenses, award themselves pay rises etc etc....not to represent your will.

EG- Im sure all the people who voted labour would be appauled if someone suggested that the war in Iraq was blood on their hands if they voted for Blair.

Yet that is the sad reality..said party has been elected, which then proceeds to follow a course of action that I doubt many of their party members approved of, much less the nation at large.

And watching PMs question time is proof enough the democracy is fast becoming a quite literal joke.
