A repeat of 1905 Hi, as someone who has always advocated radical thinking but opposed to violent action I am at a loss as to how ordinary people should react to this – we have a government that none of us voted for, carrying out policies that none of them had in their manifestos – we cannot vote them out, and they are ensuring that any electoral reform keeps it that way – at what point will they get it?

It is also beautifully written and persuasively argued. Unlike Osborne's justifications for his cuts. The Lib-Dems really should be ashamed for agreeing to this monstrous program. And given the level of group think that now seems to be common, I don't think anyone should be surprised that Straw is lining up with others to try and prevent democratic reform of the electoral system. The enemies of democracy and equitable economic redistribution do not line up neatly along party lines.
