BBC sounds, music, radio podcasts.

Hello, it's Amol.

And it's Nick, and we've got a bonus election week Q&A for you.

Yep, so many questions coming in from all of you lovely listeners.

It's almost crashing the BBC servers,

buckling under the weight of your interest in this podcast, which is really humbling.

So, let's do it.

Now, one of the things I haven't been able to do enough in this election campaign,

but the little I've done, I've enjoyed, always do, is to get out of London, to get out of studios, to not just

sit in political meetings, listening to politicians, give speeches, but to meet voters, because

the more you do that, the more you get a sense of what is really driving the way in which

people are voting. The candidates have seemed extremely reticent about doing that, very controlled

environments that most of them are operating in, very few of what we used to call the walk about.

I suspect because they're worried about the risk of one thing going

wrong, becoming a social media clip, and running very hard with millions of people watching it,

many more than watch the original clip on the TV. Maybe that's one of the reasons we got this

first question we'll think about today. Good morning. I'm all in Nick. My name's Debra. My husband,

Peter and I attended the hostings in Bolton on Monday the 24th of June.

I suggested to Nick that I would like to see a none of the above option as they have in Australia on the ballot paper.

From having spoken to lots of people, family, employees and friends, one of the strong themes is that none of us are tired of politics,

but we are tired of politicians. Perhaps having the chance to show this and be counted by voting

none of the above would encourage more people to make the effort, get out and vote, and be counted.
