One of the Beauties of NoVote 2010 is its simplicity.
At the basic level, all you have to do is not vote.
This sends the very clear message that you reject the current system of politics that we have and that you reject the current parties and politicians as a cheap facade of democracy.
It sends a message that you want real democracy, that you want real politics and are not willing to make the current sham look legitimate.
If we get a turnout of less than 50% any government that is formed cannot claim to represent the people or the country. It will essentially be illegitimate and this will provoke the process of change, putting us back in power and reconnecting people with politics.
Once you understand the logic of not voting in 2010, we hope that you will also persuade others to do the same. Engage people in discussion, help them to see how not voting can be the first step to taking back ourt power, our government and our lives.
Anything that you can do to help organise the campaign and spread the word is greatly appreciated.

Organise meetings, demonstrations, media events (if you can get them to listen) - anything that you think will help spread the message and help to get people involved in the extra parliamentary opposition
