spoiled votes are recorded in the voting figures, apathy is recorded in the turn out.

I will not vote for people i do not believe in, its simple. That is my democratic right.

I wouldn't say it was apathy, more complacency. If you don't agree with the people in power enough to vote to keep them in then vote for someone else, even if they have no hope of winning, use your vote as a protest dont waste it. Remember the monster raving loony party? Many would vote for them as they were disaffected by the main parties but they still had a vote counted.
To me if you really can't bring yourself to vote for one of the parties in the running this at least makes some sense as a protest vote.

It's why this country is ****ed, you can offer up a ****ing essay on all the factual reasons why you shouldn't trust Boris and tory voters will respond with 'Well he likes dogs so he mustn't be that bad so I'm gonna vote for him xx Who needs the NHS anyway? The Tories keep telling me it's broken and I believe them!'

Exactly it's stupid & pointless ,just stay home if you don't want to vote like what other people do . Why trail to the polling station just to scribble through them all like a child with crayon .

I think it's a decent way to protest if you really can't bring yourself to vote for anyone. Not voting at all will just go down as "couldn't be bothered" where as a deliberately spoiled vote says, "I want to vote, I made the effort but none of you represent me"

I always remember when I was young listening to the count in Ireland as my grandmother had great interest in politics, and wondered how people could spoil their votes when it was such a simple thing to put a x in a box, it was only years later I understood they simply couldn't bring themselves to vote for any of the parties but wanted their vote registered at the same time
