You'd get better public officials if you took away the voting rights of the permanently unemployed and felons, while doubling the vote of citizens with a master's degree or better...direct democracy just leads to tyranny of the mob.


Due to Labour's education policies, "anyone with a master's degree or better" is damn near half the population now...

Not that I agree with the idea of doubling the vote of anyone on the basis of education (as again, due to Labour's education policies and taking away of student grants, replacing them with loans, only very rich people are going to get degrees with a reasonable amount of debt) but I do agree with taking away the voting rights of felons at least.


Renguard is a wonderful initiative
