This a joke right, the old systems is bad, the new system is
almost like the old system with all it's flaws, so we should
move to the new one anyway. Mmmm, have you got someone
stuckup your arse, you don't play around with a constitution
with second or third best, you work for 'quality'.

We can knock the current system, that's probably
what led to the current debate, but alas you can't see
that debate has been won, we have a referendum.

I'm however not interested in 'the proposed change that isn't a change'
nonsense of the 'Yes' lobby. You know their hiding something when
they say 'sign here it's just a formality'.
