Voting reform

[susanreads]

How many issues have the Greens, the Liberal Democrats, UKIP, the SNP and Plaid Cymru all in agreement?

If you're in the UK, pretty much whoever you voted for, you've probably noticed that our voting system is a big mess. The Electoral Reform Society and Unlock Democracy are running a joint campaign to do something about it, with a petition which is to be handed in on May 18th: Make Seats Match Votes.

I think the two larger parties will eventually get pushed into some kind of reform as politics are changing so much and becoming much more fractured with smaller parties sprouting up or becoming stronger. There should be an independent committee to work out the best system for us.
