Tim Bradford, London: 'Sixty-one percent of registered voters actually voted in the 2005 general election. What would reformists and revolutionaries of previous centuries think of our apathy?'

Ben Serbutt, London: 'I saw the original version of this poster and was quite bothered by it as the Tories are presenting themselves via a slick PR and poster campaign, as something they are not – ie inclusive. So here is my modified poster'

Alex Bell, Halifax: 'Ironically, it was a dearth of inspiration in any of the three main parties that led to my submission'
