With the upcoming local elections I had planned to spoil my paper [1]

well why not simply not bother to vote. They really couldn't care
less about the people who do that.

Unfortunately wouldn't understand even if I tried to explain it to
you. ;-(


I'd be interested to see you try because I know they don't care .


Quite (any why I wouldn't bother).

Spoilt papers are a very small minority, they are more interested in those that don't vote and why


Cite?

or floating voters.


Which I potentially am of course.

If yuo spoil yuor vote you are more than lilely not interested in the current system of voting
or any of the parties standing.


Exactly, but could be more interested in a real system that represents
the will of the people than others seem happy to use.

Those that vote the 'wrong' way are unilkely to change especailly the traditional labour/tory voters.


Quite, even if their choice is based on little in the way of current
fact.
