It does wind me up when people I know whinge about things, & then when asked "So, who are you voting for then?" reply "Oh, I never bother voting. Can't be bothered / don't like politics / etc.".

Yup, agreed with FW on that above

As I have always said, "those who do not bother voting, get the government they deserve." If they do not vote, they relinquish their right to complain.
