Petition Compulsory Voting

More details

Make voting at General elections compulsory starting from 2015.

Only 65% of citizens voted at the last general election, everyone needs to be involved in who governs our country.

A box, for example, on the ballot paper should read 'None of the above' if they dont wish to vote for any political party.

This should hopefully encourage people, who currently dont, to take a interest in who governs there country, and if they still dont have an opinion then theres a box for that.

Everyone needs to take an interest in Politics again, sign this petition!

Thankyou.
