This is not feasible with proportional representation.<br /><br />2) The winning candidate will have received 50% or more of the votes, which is far more democratic than the wrong outcome occurring for a constituency through vote splitting, as well as being better for democracy in the long term.<br /><br />There would be no need for the current farce of tactical voting.<br />John Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01368536835090304923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-15157608181420448712019-11-04T11:15:50.185+00:002019-11-04T11:15:50.185+00:00I think it’s wrong that the Speaker cannot represe...I think it’s wrong that the Speaker cannot represent their constituents during votes, except for a casting vote in a draw, and is unopposed by the major parties at GEs.<br /><br />Perhaps :<br /><br />1) The term of a Speaker should always end when a GE is called?<br /><br />2) A new Speaker should be elected by the new Parliament and a by-election called for a new constituency representative?<br />John Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01368536835090304923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-30906026446595083992019-11-04T11:01:48.915+00:002019-11-04T11:01:48.915+00:00Vote any Lib/Lab/Con get more lies, deception, gre...Vote any Lib/Lab/Con get more lies, deception, greenie, socialist, PC shite.<br /><br />Not really sure where amongst the 650 they could find any honest and upstanding candidates.mikebravonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-8991630203449178142019-11-04T10:44:04.234+00:002019-11-04T10:44:04.234+00:00Hope we get a decent Speaker too.
