I'm not British, so please excuse my ignorance of the issue. I saw the web site, but it does not explain what the issue is. What is the objection to the present system, and what is the remedy? If you are countenancing imitating the American (USA) system, then I reluctantly alert you that our representatives have insulated themselves in a coccoon of unaccountability, public secrecy, and disinformation. They are perceived by a huge portion of voters as arrogant, unresponsive, and even corrupt. Their intransigence has triggered several large popular movements, chief of which is the Tea Party. The movement's most popular Brit is Daniel Hannan, MEP. http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100027693/what-could-be-more-british-than-a-tea-party/ Please show us a better way than that. Our Constitution is ingenious, but the public has allowed the ideal to erode, and the struggle to restore it is a difficult slog, ----------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------------
