        Will do Bubblewrap - thanks for the reminder.

        It may be impotent but it is also important!

          You don't need your polling card to vote - I seem to have lost mine (surprise surprise) but my name should be on their list anyway.

              Thanks Jeanie, realise that but find it odd that we haven't recieved any and youngest daughter who voted last year has not had any electoral bumf at all through the post. I guess either Royal Mail have lost them or the local council, either way should not be suprised.

                  I'm a bit of a hypocirt here - haven't voted ever. Mainly becauase I find politics boring, but then I'll have a scoff when a change affects me.

                  I never learn though.

                  I had the Welsh nationalist party knocking on my door a few weeks back, made me chuckle as I'm English living here They didn't see the funny side :/ Still, left a leaflet that went straight into the recycling. Can't stand pushy a**eholes.

                    We all find politics boring. Nearly everyone enjoys voting though: just look at X Factor and all that lot.

                    Quite often people don't vote because they don't understand the issues, or can't be bothered to look into what each candidate is promising. And of course, you can vote in every single election in your life and NEVER pick the winning candidate (that would be me)

                    Do vote though... even if you write NONE OF THEM on your paper

                      Even if you don't have/vote in local elections, this referendum is far, far too important to ignore! Please please take the time out to vote YES or No, this may be the last chance for a long while to gwt some kind of reform. And if the gov't can say 'nobody bothers with referendums' we might not see many more of them either!!
                      I'm voting YES because I believe that even a small change is better than no change at all. And Stephen Fry says so, and he's clever... (joke obv.)

                        Think you hit the nail on the head there TS. I don't understand the issues, I also don't seem to have the time to sit down and go through it all to work out which way I'd go. I tend to finally sit down for good about 9PM, and goto bed shortly after.. I *NEED* to retire. Or win the lotto?

                            I have a don't vote don't moan attitude and I like to moan. We have local elections too, so I shall be off later. Its all worked out better than the last general election: I was never registered and left it too late to do anything about it but the OH, who cannot vote in this country, was registered.

                              Do you know, TS might have struck on a good idea. Run the elections like the X-Factor, more people might vote with free phone numbers, especially the ones who don't like to leave the comfort of their couches.
