I am not going to refer to any policies or personalities, but to the following statement....
"Personally cant see an end to this charade, whatever we get will be a weak and split government. Weak governments cant make decisions, a phenomenon which has plagued Italy on and off for years. We, d be better making a few wrong but strong decisions rather than drifting as we are now, and for foreseeable future. "
I must disagree. The primary function of an elected Western Government is to control the permanent government..e.g the civil service, the police,the court process. Having a representative government , constantly looking over its shoulder at a strong opposition,ensures that this happens. The major flaw in both the UK and now US systems is this mantra of strong binary divide. The more European model of PR ensures that the representatives are actually representive. It drives a more central consensus model, where laws that are obviously in the broad public interest are enacted,and those for narrow sectional interest..like tax cuts and rises are not.
