Because foolishly I believed that paying council tax would entitle me to a vote, but apparently one has to register separately & by the time the election was called it was too late to register. However I would have voted either lib dem or green & it would have made no difference as Diane Abbott has a 15000 majority in my constituency ( tho as labour mps go, she´s pretty decent. but would like to know if she´s ever planning on doing anything about the disaster which is clissold leisure centre ). But really what I want is proportional representation so I can vote green and make it count.

Max replies: Proportional representation will only give the Greens a minority vote, so how much difference will that make? I heard a Green candidate state a few years ago that they don't want to gain a majority in parliament, just enough to sway the vote. In other words, they don't want to take on the responsibility that goes with government.
