Indeed, where can I rank my selections in terms of preference?Originally posted by Spacecadet View Postshouldn't this be a poll (with AV)?
Although I'd then be worried that AndyW's mum would wield disproportionate influence on the result

Unfortunately, both systems are flawed. What we need a system where the whole nation can elect the Prime Minister, and not the constituents of a given area where the leaders are standing. In areas where the leaders are standing, there should be a first and second choice, so if their party wins, the second choice gets to represent the constituent whilst the leader takes their time to run the country. Also, instead of the party electing the leader, 2 or 3 candidates (or more if applicable) from each party put themselves forward to the public, and let the public decide on an AV style election.

Hard to know who to believe but I'm voting no on the assumption that AV would give us more Hung parliaments.
Also, I look at the people who support AV and It's the usual suspects; Fry, Izzard et al.
Also, the Vote No campaign's political broadcast featured Rik Mayall as Alan B'stard. That alone got my vote.Comment
