On another post I suggested allowing a "none of the above" option on ballot papers.

See here

Dixie responded by suggesting that it might make a good petition on the no10 website.

I've thought about this for a few days, and it occurs to me that whilst it isn't likely to attract the same kind of interest as the anti-road-charging one, it may get some attention.

Oh bother, it's already been done, twice, and neither got very much interest:

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/noneoftheabove/
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/rmdent/

Hmmm, is it worth creating a new one, but spending a little time "forumstorming" (as opposed to brainstorming) to come up with a petition statement and details that will
a) attract a lot of signatures
b) really give a suitable alternative?

[EDIT]This one is still live for the next 2 days, sign up now!

:oops: hands up who read "November 2007" as "November 2006"?

(is there an emoti-whatsit for "hands up"?)
