I always use my vote. The trouble is, there is increasingly little to vote for, but plenty to vote against. In the UK, I find this situation is further complicated by the fact that few politicians are worth the bother. Once elected their sole ambition seems to be self, self, self rather than honest representation of the people who put them in power. I include all parties in this description. They are all as self serving and corrupt as each other.

Perhaps if everyone stopped voting they might get the message.
