We must have Fair Elections
Immediate Electoral System change to Proportional Representation (PR)
Why is this important?
It is undemocratic and fundamentally unfair for any political party in any election to get 12.7% of the vote and not get the corresponding number of representatives elected. Whatever you personally may think about any party concerned is irrelevant, it is the principle that voting numbers must be represented correctly by the election results, which is at stake here. In this General Election 2015 a party received equal to 4 million votes and got 1 MP, whereas another party got 1.5 million votes and got 56 MPs. For the sake of our fair and democratic society and a decent electoral system, this has to be changed immediately. To have a healthy democracy the current system cannot be left to continue the way it is.
