I still havent decided between a tactical vote for the lib-dems or a principled spoiled paper.

I used to be an activist in the labour party back in the 80's, and watched bemused as they quietly evicted or closed down the most radical portions. The youth section had a place at the constituency meetings. When they closed the Y.S. down, me and my companion chose to walk out of the meeting. The room was silent, and nobody would look us in the eye. They knew that they were ditching their principles to gain electoral favour even then. To their credit, at least at a constituency level, some of them were uncomfortable about what they were doing, but I can understand people's apathy and disillusionment. No choice, no point...
