Well the silly season seems here.

Just been reading the Salford Online site. It’s sad really that a great site is turning into a propaganda piece. The amount of hits the site would get in any one period should in reality have made it in to something Salford is missing an up to the minute news medium. The Local Advertiser had the spot of Local News provider, Salford Star was a Heavy weight but starved of funding and now we see the Salford online site dominated by Labour spin. The staff on the site always seem a decent bunch i only hope it does not loose sight of what the site is there to provide.News for Salford People. Most news mediums stop using political stories during the election, asking  the candidates fair questions is a great idea but Cllr Merrys press spokesman seems to be having a field day.

A small part of Davis Ot’s article and guess what i agree

One is that AV is not proportional representation – it is a fairly small, incremental change from the first-past-the-post system we already use. Moreover, it’s mathematically complex, so its effects are not obvious. Most of the arguments for or against it, then, are debatable. The ‘yes’ campaign claims it will push extremist parties to the margins, because they will never garner enough support to cross the 50 per cent threshold. The ‘no’ campaign says it will encourage mainstream parties to seek second-preference votes from those with extremist tendencies. The former seems more plausible – but it’s difficult, or impossible, to prove.

Such a situation is a fertile breeding ground for bad arguments.

The second reason casts considerable light on the state of the coalition. Put simply: supporters of AV, and in particular the Liberal Democrats, are giving the issue far more importance than it actually deserves.

Plenty of us might vote yes, on the basis that AV is very slightly better, and very slightly fairer, than first-past-the-post. (Or to put it another way, the people of Papua New Guinea have a slightly better voting system than we do.) But this ‘miserable little compromise’, as Nick Clegg himself once described AV, is hardly a democratic revolution.

Why are the Lib Dems pushing so hard? Partly because it would benefit them, in terms of the number of MPs elected. But partly, I suspect, because they are using the issue as a pressure valve to vent their frustrations at the coalition itself.

Don’t forget

“Electing Green Councillors really does make a difference – to individuals, local communities, the city, and at national level. We bring a positive approach to politics: working hard, listening to our constituents, and providing innovative and considered solutions to issues locally and nationally. We know people are looking for a real alternative – and that’s just what the Green Party can provide. I hope all those who agree with us will come out, take positive action, and vote Green on 5th May.”
