What is a proter?
Such terminology could be useful for the 'voting behaviour' part of the politics/citizenship examinations.

'Proters' are mad. What a waste of a vote. Why bother turning up at all? The fact of the matter is that a protest vote does little to effect the mainstream parties; it would only serve to give momentum and power to extremists like the BNP and loonies like UKIP!
I propose a new box on the slip of paper saying 'protest', so if people wish to protest against the main parties they have an option to do so, instead of voting for Fasicts. |

It seems that a new word had evolved from the recent EU and Local Government elections. That word is 'proter'. A Proter is somebody who uses his/her vote as a protest against the government or establishment parties.
