The best way to spoil one's ballot paper..

[1976_Child]

Written large across the ballot paper words to the effect of:

 

"You are all fornicating masterbaters and only in it for what you can get out of it. I would rather eat my own feces than take part in this sham democratic process when you are all completely the ****ing same"

 

Think that will do the trick and let them know that my vote is for none of them?

Thing is the parties don't actually get to see your ballot paper so you won't get the benefit of sending that particular message. Last election I just wrote "No Choice" but that was more to do with the fact that any party I wanted to vote for didn't stand in my constituency - this year is different thankfully.

I'd do a great big sh*t on mine but I'm afraid it would be counted as a Labour vote.

Spoiling your ballot paper is uniquely pointless. If none of the candidates/parties appeal, then either vote tactically or exercise your right not to vote. The only people who are going to see your rage against the system will be the witlessly bored counter who won't even be bothered to have a laugh with the other counters about it. It goes into a pile for spoiled ballots, then locked away in a basement of the town hall, and ultimately burned by a secure disposal company and scattered over south Wales. All without anyone giving a toss.

 

That worked then.

Exactly.

 

If you wrote that on the side of Westminster, however.....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You would be a very naughty boy who is a vandal and criminal and everyone, including me, would deplore your actions.

I like to make up slanderous allegations about each candidate. No purpose to it, no one else probably reads it but it makes me feel better.

Or, thirdly, do whatever you want with it. It is your vote, after all.

 

I can exercise my right to spoil it if I want. I never have, but then again, I never vote either.
