Brown has pontificated about compulsory voting before but shut up when he realised that coerced voters would be unlikely to vote Labour. It's widely reckoned that compulsory voting tends to benefit the fringe parties, so it's not very likely to happen. And it dosn't help you with to 10% or so of the population who decline to register to vote.
