  1. yup couldn't agree more - all those people who fought to get the right to vote has all been a waste of time because since 1928 nothing has changed! Like you perplexingly stated, we still are ruled by dictators! Voting IS a waste of time and always will be! Non-participation is the best silent protest one can ever adopt!

  2. John King so you live in n Ireland, use the voting system but n ireland still remains part of UK! hmm great system you have it seems! moreover you fail to acknowledge the actual power of non participation, the power of silence and disinterest. Let's say you was a pop artist and you organise a gig in Birmingham. nobody turned up. would you return? err I don't think so and you'd certainly have to rethink your strategy!

  3. John King well there's your answer, divvy up the area of n ireland to the ratio of 60-49 then get all those who don't want to remain in UK to move to the south of n ireland then extend the border of Ireland to encompass those peiple! simple!

  4. I've never voted in my life and wouldn't want to ever and think it rather bigoted that people call non-voters morons! We should respect what people want to do and people should have the right not to vote if they so wish. Voting to me, is a waste of time and unfair as one would expect to see a none of the above option on the ballot paper??

  5. John King so what about the minority? so much for them!

  6. @Totalwarking7 well stated! But you forgot to add that people who do vote are quite happy with a broken system!!
