I'd sooner vote for someone I believed in than this horseshit about wasted votes... even if my 'wasted' vote this time round means momentum gathers for that party to have a real chance 50 years from now. Could never, ever, vote for the 'lesser of two evils' - to me that's like being asked by a copper who has arrested/tried/convicted me of a crime I didn't commit, whether I want a punch in the mouth or a kick in the bollocks. No way am I taking part in that
Haven't voted in a general election since I was 20, and highly doubt that will change before I die. I have HUGE respect for those that vote with their conviction.
