Yes To Fairer Votes photo in Cambridge

[chess]

The AV Yes Campaign are doing a photo shoot on Saturday. I can't get to it because I'm at a player event, so I thought I would post about it. Event details and signup at http://tinyurl.com/purplephoto

I suspect if I actually made any commentary on AV I would mostly be preaching to the converted here, but I'm always happy to host a political argument on this or basically any subject if you like :).

The very short version is: I want the AV Yes Campaign to win because it would mean that I never, ever have to deliver any propaganda with the phrase 'two-horse race' or a stupid bar graph showing how Foo Can't Win Here ever again...

Re: AV can mean voting against your party

• Pupil Premium


• Capital Gains Tax


• AV referendum


• School Budget increased


• Inheritance Tax Threshold frozen


• Student loan payback threshold high and index-linked


• Pro-Europe foreign policy

Clegg's list of victories is impressive and public. I suspect the problem is that people didn't vote Lib Dem because they wanted the manifesto implemented, but as a protest vote against the Tories.

Clearly I should read the news more as I was only vaguely aware of half of these. Good job Cleggy boy!
