So who are you voting for then ? Cards on the table

[Organ Morgan.]

A protest.

Ha!

Dopey me had believed the secret ballot line I'd heard so often and that one's vote is between oneself and the ballot box. That was until the first time I bowled into a polling station to watch the clerk scribble numbers on my ballot paper. "What do those numbers represent?" I asked. "It's your number on the electoral roll," she replied. "So," I pressed, "my choice of candidate is easily identifiable then?" That nonplussed her. She pulled a face and glanced at her colleague with a "I think he might be pissed" expression. She did concede it would be possible for a third party to discover my and every other person's vote before adding "that would never happen". I implied she was remarkably gullible and she scowled again.

Dopey you for thinking that your not voting will serve as a very specific protest. Sorry to burst your bubble.

As I stated, the primary reason for not voting is it would be a waste of my time.

An extract from the late comedian George Carlin's polemic The American Dream sketch - "Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have owners! They own you!"

Who are the owners? Bankers. Multinational corporations. Major landowners. Liz from Buck House is also with them behind the curtain having a chuckle. That same Liz who's head of state but who no-one has ever voted for. Which reminds me, in addition to secret ballots being a lie so is the 'Britain is a democracy' bullshit we're constantly subjected to.

So the alternative would be to get more public ownership of land and assets?
