People are fed up and want change..........

But!!! Only a 20% turnout, which to me is saying people are fed up with the politicians of this country.

correct even the tories and the party who has been in power for years cannot rely now on low turnouts. can easily see a record broken somewhere for the lowest ever turnouts in any type of by election. its called being ground down.

I think it should be compulsory to vote, even if you just tick abstain......

Shocking turnout and the best candidate, judging by character, !ost.Reform couldn't even be arsex to put a comment on the mail which all the other candidates managed.

i,d go with that as long as it was only at a polling station with the proof you are what it says you ar. other forms of voting is open to abuse. if you are ill or on holiday its just tough shit.

A comment as in what??? It certainly didn`t help the candidates that did comment!!

The electorate deserve what they get, yet they will still be moaning and groaning about the services they receive, they will say there is no point, well there is no point if you don’t vote then.

When all politicians of all colours are out for themselves, their career, and their party I'd say none of us deserve them. Voting is irrelevant if every government is intent on f*cking us over, all you're doing is electing the coital position.

20% turnout ............i despair.
Should some have a vote or would it be better is i was appointed "Lord Protector" ?

20% voting for a party and 80% ticking to abstain offers nothing different to 20% voting for a party and 80% Sat at home. They’re abstaining either way.

I would like to thank everybody who turned up on the day.,Mutley..
