    Well it's fair to both of them as they change the law and rig the vote so they both get re-elected.
    So in essence, you cannot conceive of anything fairer? I rest my case.

      Fairer to whom?

      There is more than one type of democracy - after all the Russian Federation is a democracy.

      Also even in different UK elections different methods of declaring the winner(s) are used.

        Fairer to the electorate of a decent sized democracy.

        What we have is far from perfect, but other than a PR system (which I would personally prefer), our system is pretty fair.

        Our problems do not lie in the system of choice that we employ, they lay in the fact that we have such a piss-poor selection of candidates to select from.

          things that you don't like aren't always "Nazi" !
          I merely point out that you are lined up with Nazis. I didn't realise it was going to offend your snowflake sensibilities so much.
