  2. An important bit of wording in this report was very wrong, re AV. We did NOT vote to 'keep FPTP in place', we voted AGAINST AV, as it was not an acceeptable alternative. It's really important you get that workding right, because advocates for reform constantly get the 'We already had a referendum on this' thrown back in our face... in the face of people who voted against AV. [And that was a direct failure of the Lib Dems.] Please do better.

  3.  @willwilisovskywillis5273  They can be banned from dorect campaigning, the candidates are not allowed to be campaign openly [tho a party could obv endorse one]. Then when MP, they are not owned by the party and can vote for what their electorte wants. Party politics was the result of the need to simplify the selection process. But modern technology now makes that process much easier.
