<"MikeL2: I have no problem at all with those who thought about it, detected and allowed for the spin and came to the conclusion that FPTP was the best solution. But the acid test is whether you can still vote NO (or YES) even if the kind of thing I suggested in my post of 4:02 came about and your personal choice of party was severely disadvantaged".

Hi DMG

My answer to that is that I voted "No" despite my political slant to Labour. So in fact I was voting against the possible effect on Labour's future chances - given that there is a general view that the Tories had most to gain from the "No" vote.

I voted "No" because I believe that it is the fairest system that brings about a fair democratic result.

With regard to your question about money in your other message...time is money. All the time spent on planning and organising and promoting etc etc. has meant that it has not gone into what I consider far more important issues that face this Country.
