The last time I voted it was entirely futile- I voted in Durham, a notoriously safe Labour seat. The choice was: vote Labour (no), vote Conservative (shit no), not vote at all (no) or vote Liberal Democrat (hmm...)

So I went with the last option, and Labour got 70% of the vote anyway.

Ho hum. This time round Oona King is my MP who I actually quite like... but sadly she's Labour. So I'm shafted again.
