To make democracy work we must be a nation of participants, not simply observers. One who does not vote has no right to complain.

How many British politicians does it take to clean up a broken light bulb?

With little of the empire left to micromanage, a commission of the British House of Commons has turned its attention to creating a 10 step guide to tell the descendants of those who weathered the blitz how to deal with a broken light bulb.

Nick Harvey, the spokesman for the parliamentary commission, said that the guidelines were necessary, because "there had been an incident where a light bulb had been broken and placed in a waste paper bin. Someone had picked it out and cut their finger."

I think their next project should a a 10 step guide on how to dispose of the first 10 step guide in order to prevent a paper cut.
