Can someone clear something up for me about spoiling your ballot paper?

I'm reffering to the UK and specifically the upcoming Scottish Parliment elections.





Many people are going on about just spoiling you paper becasue if over 40% of ballot papers are returned spoiled then the rest of the votes won't count. Or something like that. There are a lot of stories going around regarding this!





I won't be spoiling my ballot paper, I'll be using my vote properly like I'd urge everyone to do but I was just wanting this cleared up!Can someone clear something up for me about spoiling your ballot paper?
Since you have no answers I am going to wade in where I don't belong. But to me that would be a poor form of protest, it would be cutting your nose to spite your face. Elections are about choosing and by wasting a vote it is not choosing. .
