I think we actually agree a lot and I appreciate your reflection on voting systems and democracy. I agree with you that FPTP is democratic, and that you get groups who are over-represented (such as your example with SNP). I respect your point about deficiencies with alternative voting systems as seen in other countries in Europe, and do distrust anyone that promises a panacea in general. I couldn't agree more about being well-informed and actually voting. I also agree with your earlier points that I didn't mention in my other comment, about other recent anti-democratic measures (specifically Voter ID), and your particularly prescient point about a partial driver of Brexit. That last point is something that I've thought about a lot, and I think it's worth pondering more. |
