I know someone who is a paid up member of many poltical parties
for the sole reason that it gives him a vote on party decisions, leadership battles etc. He feels it better to be able to attempt to change the policies a party he disagrees with has than to vocally slag them off. He was on the BNP list and he's never voted for them and never would.
