I think that the system is long over due for change. After all the pre-election promises (or vote winners) then come the excuses blaming the previous party or the five year term isn't long enough to get things back on track. Referendums, your only allowed to vote on issues that won't alter anything! Deciding your own pay rise, let's all get in on that one...Voting, not likely (I'll be 43 on voting day & I havn't voted since we were opted into Europe & I was too young to vote then) lets have a square on the ballot slip," none of the above" & make everyone vote, then we'll see the score...

Dan Gurden replies: I certainly agree with a 'none of the above' lets make it a countable element, if more 'None's' are voted than candidates then the parties have to resit the process and pay out the fee's again, but the candidates cannot stand.
That would certainly sort the wheat from the chaff.

Francis Irving replies: Oooo, I like that. Same candidates can't stand again if they can't beat "none of the above". I wonder what would happen.
