Quote of the day

Pete explains his voting strategy for tomorrow's European elections:

"Just who do you vote for if you don't vote labour? Well in the last 3 elections I have participated in I have drawn a picture of a cat on the ballot paper and voted for that, and I will do so again tomorrow ... I see my deliberate despoilation of my ballot paper as a principled stand and is certainly preferable to voting for a joker merely as a protest."
