A vote of "no confidence in any canditate" on every ballot paper

Additional Information

On all ballot papers for local and general elections, a box corresponding to a vote of no confidence in any candidate should be made available and such votes should be counted as formal absentions. In the eventuality that these abstentions achieve a majority of the vote, parties should be legally obliged to find a replacement candidate or withdraw entirely. In other words, nominations should be re-opened. The public should be allowed to voice their disallusionment with party politics in a formal manor, while exercising their right to vote and not having to resort to "protest votes".
