Re: In hindsight

Westminster seems to have a deep-seated fear of anything but the simplest voting processes. Hence we have first-past-the-post which delivers crushing majorities for a minority of the vote and ensures most votes are wasted at general elections; and we have *advisory* referendums not only given credence by populist politicians, but not subject to super majority thresholds.

The Westminster system is so dysfunctional it might just be quicker to list the bits that work well...

...anyone?
