[quote=@Muttonhawk] I'll tell you one of the least inflammatory things about their democratic situation that I'm contemptuous about: They've got a first-past-the-post voting system and non-compulsory elections. Silly British geese. This is why we don't pay you guys taxes any more. As for the Brexit, no one can really determine the long term outcomes, but right now the stock market is panicking because the stock market generally doesn't like it when things change. [/quote] Yeah, first-past-the-post is a disgrace. As for compulsory voting... eh It's complicated. You children wouldn't understand. (Suffice to say, I hope to God that my hideously obese, xenophobic, outwardly racist neighbour never sees a voting booth, else I'll really be going up the Nile to Nepal) Edit: it might make me sound horrible, but there are some real pieces of work in good ol' England. And unfortunately, [s]they're the majority.[/s] Ok, maybe not the majority, but there's enough of them to do damage. Like Brexit.
