That won't wash. Those who didn't vote (the vast majority of them, anyway), have demonstrated that they don't care. Protestations about 'they're all the bleedin' same, innit?' are just a fig-leaf for plain laziness, both intellectual and bone-idle.

There is nothing remotely moral about refusing to participate in the government of our country for half an hour, once every five years. They didn't want their voice heard last Thursday so they have no business moaning about the outcome now.
