Ham-Faced Spam Robot Strikes Again!
AAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!! Woke up this morning to hear Cameron telling us plebs just why AV is sooo bad for us…
- Apparently, we are all too thick to use anything else other than a cross on a ballot paper. (Well, future generations may be, after Govey’s education reforms…)
- It is not always proportional – unlike, of course, First Past The Post.
- Other Parties may gain seats at the expense of the two main parties. (Note to Dave – yes, thats what voters want, you freak.)
- Some peoples votes would be counted twice (eh???). It is much better to keep a system whereby less than 2% of all votes decided the last election…
- Err… thats it.
Come off it Tory boy, you and The Taxpayers Alliance can take a running jump.
