Voting ‘yes’
On Thursday, the UK goes to the polls for a variety of matters. There will be elections to the Stormont Assembly in Northern Ireland and to the Welsh National Assembly and the Scottish Parliament. There will be many local council elections, a smattering of mayoral elections and a by-election. And across the nation (or is that nations?) there is the referendum on our electoral system. And in that referendum, the Singing Librarian will be voting ‘yes’, because he would like our system to be changed from “First Past the Post” to “Alternative Vote” (AV). Actually, that’s not true. There are many better options than AV, but these options are not being presented to us, and AV is the better of the two on the table.
