Thanks for posting that. I guess, for whatever reasons, you really do not like voting, but at least by removing yourself from the list the only person you are affecting is yourself.

28% of the electorate did register and for one reason or another did not vote despite the government ( or local council) paying to print out and distribute voting cards for voters attending polling stations or voting papers in the case of postal voters.

Though it's probably just a small amount it could have been saved if people registered to vote who were not intending to vote simply did what you were considerate enough to do and de-registered themselves next time there was a vote.
