“So more than 85% of people in Derbyshire didn't bother, as opposed to less than 30% reported in the DT as a result of one of the unreliable polls? Here: http://tinyurl.com/alc3aun”

“You could call the turnout "disappointing" or you could reflect on the possibility that many people (including myself) didn't turn out to vote as they disagree with the continual politicisation of the police force. Or perhaps people didn't vote because they would rather this government did something more useful with the tax payers money - like closing the loopholes that allow the rich, and the multinationals, pay almost no tax on their vast UK incomes.”
