People are right the Labour Party could have reformed Parliament earlier, though we should note that it IS in their manifesto this time and that they have reformed the House of Lords already. I don't support the party in theory, but in this stupid electoral system I voted for them in order to keep the Tory Party from winning a majority. I know we need a whole new way of doing politics, a lot more openness and intelligent discussion rather than feeble PR and soundbites that we have at the moment.
No-one is the legitimate government and any deal between any group is equally valid. This has been the same for the last 70 years. Not one single valid majority. Every government has been a minority government because no-one has ever gotten 50% of the vote!!
