Rejected petition Change the Voting System from First Past The Post to PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION
In recent Elections, tactical voting took place along with parties NOT fielding candidates, it is time we had a voting system where every vote counts!
In 2011 the referendum rejected an AV System, this referendum must be PR versus FPTP.
More details
In the last few years we have moved away from the two party system with a greater choice emerging, the population has become more politically aware and diverse and want their views and aspirations represented more openly in Parliament.
