Default Re: Totally off-topic poll

He did. Cast a ballot, but only vote for things you actually support, or against things you don't. If you don't like any of the choices, don't vote for any of them, but do cast the ballot.
That is not a more effective method of showing disapproval. That either increases a smaller parties share of the vote (whose successes are often reported in terms of single issue politics, and who I don't believe are more able to run the country) or increases spoilt ballots, which do not make Primetime news, and come across as people too dumb to fill in a ballot paper properly.

It also reduces the impact of "X% of people do not vote" headlines, which are the loudest message that people find politics uninspiring.

If another issue becomes more important to me, I will vote accordingly, but I still see this as the most effective way to register what I think.
