People who can't be arsed to vote 22:31 - Jun 7 with 4948 viewsDarran

They don't half get on my tits aye.

You've got the manager of the Swans under 18s telling everyone on Twitter that he's never voted before even though he's been eligible for nearly 20 years.

Perhaps that's because for each of those twenty years he's had Jon Snow on his screen telling him he's got something from the Conservatives in his right hand and something from Labour in his left. Jon Snow doing his best to whip up a bit of excitement when he already knows, as do the rest of us, it's a shit sandwich in both.

An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

An Italian friend of mine says that in Italy they have a 24 hour media blackout on the election prior to polling day. I think this would be a terrific idea in the UK.

And still we'll keep arguing amongst ourselves the more or less palatable shit sandwich whilst financial interests piss themselves laughing at us.

I'm the same for "tactical" voters. Seems a cover for their true leanings but they can't admit it due to vanity.

Nothing is palatable enough for me in this election to vote on, and in the current political climate, I am more interested who blames the Russians for defeat after the fact.

I've found the leaders to be weak at best, incoherent and imbecilic at worst, the supporting cast behind them just as bad. Advertising and campaigning has been on destroying reputation of other leaders (Cons mainly), the people trying to convince others to vote a certain way rely on insulting others with unimaginative pejoratives to try and shame them (Labour voters mainly , especially here). It's been a shambles from top to bottom.

I wont be voting again (only voted on a third of GE I have been eligible for) not because I don't want to, just because in good conscience I cannot.

I wouldn't be against voting being compulsory.
I'll be voting and so will my wife, who had never voted before we met. Nobody in her family will, they haven't in at least 20 years, they'll just carry on moaning about issues they couldn't be ar$ed to try and do something about.

Bring in PR and I'd be behind that. Under FPTP, nope. Can't have it both ways. Too many wasted votes. Other options etc.

If you don't want to vote, don't vote. Just don't bitch when the next government does something you don't like.

I don't buy the compulsory voting idea. That would force a sizeable minority who clearly have no interest in politics into voting.
What would they base their decision on? They're fed up with having to be there, they've not listened to, watched or read anything about the election. Would it be the first name on the paper? The one with a surname the same as someone they know? They would be making a completely uninformed decision.
We could argue about how well informed any voters are but those who vote today have taken enough interest to get of their arses and make a decision on who to vote for.

I also have never voted before and am in my mid thirties.

Not through an attitude of ''cant be bothered though'', but through complete apathy. There is nothing worth voting for.

If I had no interest at all in how the country is run and just relied on the propaganda on social media, I would probably vote Labour. Possibly even UKIP after recent events in London and Manchester. That's the danger of relying on a few headlines.

Quite agree with you, voting should be for those who are either looking out for themselves and their families, or ideally the country as a whole. It shouldn't be a case of ticking any box just because you have to.

Does not deal in personal insults?

May should absolutely have had the confidence to debate, really let herself down, but he hasnt missed a chance to take a juvenile dig at that. Everyone knows she bottled it. He'd have come out of it far better if he just hadn't mentioned it.

That's not an insult. He just wanted people to meditate on why she wouldn't do it. A total and arrogant Dodson for the electorate backed up by a manifesto she couldn't be bothered to share with the public UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION.

Never mind the police cuts, she deserves to be kicked out solely for her arrogance.
