If you're one of the people who doesn't vote, isn't interested in politics and thinks "they" are all the same, here's a new approach to voting that should interest you.

Down in Hackney, East London, an independent candidate launched his campaign last night on a platform he calls Direct Digital Democracy - promising, if elected, to vote in parliament however the people in his constituency tell him to!

At the Getavote website, candidate Denny de la Haye explains. "How will

it work? For each vote coming up in Parliament, I will put a poll on

this

website. Every voter living in Hackney South will have a login for this

website, and will be able to vote in the polls using their computer or

their mobile phone. Whatever the majority vote is, I will vote that

way."

So if you're not planning to vote this year because none of the parties or candidates reflects your views - would you vote for someone who promised to do this? Would you trust an MP who voted the way an online poll told him, or do you think those polls will get hacked or attract silly votes? Most of all, what do you think would change in Otley if every vote in parliament was decided not by the party whip or the conscience of the MP but by the people of Otley voting themselves for what they really wanted?
