I'd totally forgotten too and had to nip back home - a good reminder op!

As the only election taking place in my area is for the PCC I won't be bothering. This adds nothing to my life, and costs the country over £100m a year. Which must pay for 2,000 or so actual police officers ;)

If it's not too far, go, spoil your ballot paper and say PCC is a waste of money - one way to make your view known - and rest assured they'll see it because spoilt / uncertain ballots are pulled out and seen by candidates and their agents so they can confirm that it's not a valid vote for them or another candidate.

That's a fair point, but I would hope the abymsal turn out (which was 35% last time) will also send a similar message!!
