Quote Of The Day

'The campaign’s begun, but for 25 million of us it’s going to be a pretty quiet election. And that’s because in at least 383 Safe Seats the campaign’s already over.'

I'm in one of those, and wondered how many millions were similarly disenfranchised (although even in the 'unsafe' seats, there's not really much of a choice).

Can you provide a source for the quote? Is it mentioned in an article somewhere on the Electoral Reform Society website?

Thanks. I couldn't find the exact quote (perhaps they changed it), but the figures are mentioned, and there's plenty of interesting material there:
