Thread Name: BS: Any thoughts on AV? (Alternative Vote)
Subject: RE: BS: Any thoughts on AV?
In the constituency where I live, the previous MP was an experienced liner of his own pockets and was utterly unrepentant until the end when he was pretty much made to stand down. He was replaced with a blown-in that doesn't even answer his emails and it now looks like our new MP sees us as a rung on the ladder of his career. So, another wanker.

Despite this, the local electorate still vote tory above anyone else and they don't seem to mind being used. As I've been unfortunate enough to live here since voting age my vote has never counted for anything. On that basis I will vote in favour of AV as although it's a PR cop out it has to be better than what we've got.
