as it happens all the elections there have been i haven't voted here in birmingham anyway, so is a bit of a moot point...
everyone knows labour will get in again anyway through some fiddle, proportional representation or wahtever it is that gives them more seats per vote? so what's the point?

You haven't voted and yet you reckon it's all a fiddle.No,what it is,is that all of us who bother to vote are carrying those who don't vote.If you don't vote nothing can change.If you hate Blair that much get to a ballot box and vote him out but don't whinge about it if they get back in and you DID NOT VOTE.If only 50/60 % of those eligble to vote do so how can it prove anything?If the other 40% weren't so idle maybe TB's majority could be wiped to nothing.Then he really will be up against it because the House of Commons might be more evenly balanced with Labour not having things all their own way.
I wish it were illegal NOT to vote.
