Vote for 'None of the above'

Trevor Clarke | 12.04.2006 00:18 | London

During the local election campaigning in the metropolitan areas, leading to polling day on 4th May, if you:

Are fed up with the party politics, and being told 'it's us or them only' or it is a wasted vote

Feel that none of the party candidates with a chance of winning inspire you

Believe that whoever wins, it won't make much difference (possibly because most of the power rests with central government and unelected officials)

Yet believe that you should exercise your democratic right to vote in some form

Then please support the pledge to spoil the ballot paper by writing 'None of the above' at www.pledgebank.com/spoiltvotescount

Or you can text 'pledge spoiltvotescount' to 60022

If you can pass the information on to others, so much the better.

The donation mentioned to Make My Vote Count, is not important, it was an afterthought. The support for 'None of the above' is the main aim (to get to 100 pledges) and to seek it as an option to tick on future ballot papers.
