THE NEXT RACE IS THE POLITICAL HANDICAP.

Evidently, at the last general election, although the Tories got most of the popular vote in England, they could not oust the New Labour rabble, mainly because of it's Scottish bias. This naturally gave Scotland the added opportunity to keep the majority 'the English', in line. The main consideration, however, is the fact that in that election it took 45,000 votes to secure a Conservative win against a mere 27,600 for a Labour victory, and it will be a similar situation next year, when the country will be asked to decide once more. I have never heard a convincing argument to support the way constituency boundaries are formed. Should we keep our current, over-populated regime at Westminster. Then perhaps someone will consider changes to these boundaries.





Why should we, therefore, let this nonsense, which is the UK Government (whisper it softly), continue in its present form? At this blog site, we consider it high time for a change. We could operate with a mere handful of representatives to form a government. In this electronic age, let us get the nation to vote on constitutional changes. There would never then be MPs saying that they are listening to the voters, when patently they are not. Of course this would be difficult to implement initially. The Swiss nevertheless already have a system along these lines.









LET US GET RADICAL.
