  1. Perhaps it's time for a trial of Athenian style democracy, i.e. you hold a lottery to pick your MPs and Ministers from all the willing and eligible adults? Could the result be worse than what you have? I doubt it. This scheme has a lot of advantages, it is a good cross section of the population, it favours minorities in that they get a fair number of seats, small of course, but that is fair, it favours neither sex, it does not discriminate against the rich or poor, it gets rid of nearly all the razzamataz of elections and all the canvassing and that sort of time-wasting activity, it does not lend itself to corruption. You audit everyone who wins a seat when they win and when their term is up. Sounds good to me.

  2. Oh yes! I forgot, you get rid of all lying election promises. Get the Magic Circle (The organization of professional {stage} magicians.) to supervise the selection process, because they know all the ways of making the "right" card jump out of the pack.

  3. I also forgot to add that if you limit each person selected, to one term in office, you not only make corruption very hard and dangerous and even if successful, limited to one term, but you do away with the profession of professional politician!
