Return to the Tories

The Daily Telegraph: 2 October 2007

Sir - I think that many of the votes that have deserted the Tories have, like mine, fled, not to socialists or Liberal Democrats, but to the None-Of-The-Above (Nota) party. I use my vote as an instrument of punishment, small and puny though it is.

The Power Inquiry showed that most people are not apathetic, as politicians would have us believe, but feel that voting is pointless in our debased political system. 

However, the threat to our civil society from Gordon Brown’s totalitarian intentions suggests that Nota members must swallow whatever distaste they have for the current Tory party and rally to it.
