Campaigning For Apathy
Voter apathy has been increasing of late, and like any market trend, the smart man gets in early on the action. The Tories want to cash in on this calf. Check the headlines today:
Tories plan to cut tax but no firm promises.
Letwin is short on specifics over tax cuts.
You can trust me, says Tory leader.
Howard: We'll keep our promises.
They have announced that they won't break promises. Indeed, a scan of the papers proves that they have made no promises to break. A Political Party without an Agenda. This, I believe is groundbreaking. Appealing to the apathetic crowd by saying "A Vote for us won't mean a thing".
In order to maintain my status as a hypocrite beyond all proportions, I can now say that I have never voted, and never intend to.
//END RANT
The deck of death was procured yesterday. An impulse buy, and the novelty will wear off fast.

> I have never voted, and never intend to*splutter*
Normally I would agree with you here.
Surely though - given our Labour foreign policy over the last few years - this was the last year when this kind of olympic-level apathy was acceptable?
