"I am free to vote Labour or Conservative, but if I try to act on the belief that this choice itself masks a deeper prejudice - the prejudice that the meaning of democracy is confined to putting a cross on a ballot paper every few years - then in certain unusual circumstances I might end up in prison." Terry Eagleton.
