We were discussing politics one night and some upcoming election and i made the comment that i didn't vote.
This caused a bit of an uproar that i wasn't expecting and someone made the point that "so many people have died so i can have the vote, what would they think if you didnt and waa waa"
my response to this argument was that if all those people who died could look at the political system now, would they be happy?
In my opinion democracy, especially in england, is a shadow of what was promised. The competition is only between 2 parties realistically, and i don't want to vote for any of those fat, corrupt, arrogant schoolboys.
