"Everyone should vote. Even if you only go to the polling station to spoil your paper."

Absolutely! I've tried umpteen times to persuade friends who think 'all the parties are as bad as each other' to at least go to the ballot box with 'None of the Above' written on their ballot paper. Staying at home just sends the message you can't be arsed, which is the more palatable interpretation political parties put on low turnout, as they can blame the electorate for being apathetic. However, if enough people actually make the effort (and it's not really any fucking effort, is it?) to go and vote, but 'spoil' their ballot paper, political parties will not so easily be able to blame the public for the uninspired political landscape we now have. It will send the message: "I really WANT to vote, but there is no one who represents what I think." and that is the real message the politicians need to be hearing, not 'I'd rather sit on my arse and watch Eastenders'.
