| Message | No. 1. causes instability - we've been down that road and we are now happy with the current system 2. again the current seems fine, though if everyone else wants it back at 24 months then i would be happy support 3. No, we don't need increased bureacracy, we should cut the number of seats in Parliament. Also, there should be an odd number of seats as there used to be, not an even number as now, or in the proposal, in order to avoid 'tied votes' in Parliament |
