I'm not voting because to do that is to vote for one faction or other of the same party, the one that supports the continuation of the buying and selling system and production for profit. That's the system that perpetuates poverty, innequality, war, racism and the other ills that prevent humans from exploiting their natural potential to be decent, co-operative, public-spirited beings. The only party I know that stands for the abolition of the wages system, of buying and selling and production for profit is the Socialist Party of Great Britain and, as far as I know, they're only putting up one candidate in this election. That's in the Vauxhall costituency in London. So if I were there I would vote. But I'm not, so no thanks.
