Putting aside the question of electoral reform for the moment, Anon, at the very least (and I know this is a very tall order) people have to assume more responsibility for the country's fate by getting out to vote. The results of indifference should now be painfully obvious to even the most indolent.
Oh this could go on and on Lorne, you'd finish up with a book.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, Inse. There is much fodder for writers with strong stomachs here.
DeleteIt's remarkable that a man with such consistently bad judgment could be elected prime minister, Lorne.
ReplyDeleteSadly, although I hate to say it, Owen, it reflects badly on the 39% of the electorate that gave him his majority.
