Disenfranchised!

A bureaucratic blunder has deprived me of the opportunity to vote in today's British general election: My postal ballot has not arrived. (Thank you Lambeth or La Poste, whoever is to blame). I'm not fool enough to think that putting an X in a box once every few years gives you much of a say in how your country is run, but for most of us, it is as much of an influence as we ever have over the goings on in the corridors of power. To therefore lose that right is pretty bloody maddening to say the least! If the result goes the wrong way I'll be even more pissed off.
