  • The lack of other ‘reasonable’ options is a headache and one which will not be cured in my lifetime, that is a pity. Perhaps future generations may have better options.

    Also newly formed 'reasonable' parties tend to get targeted by the other big parties before they can get enough traction.

  • Yup. Oddly I was thinking about this, new parties nearly have to align themselves to the ‘traditional’ parties which completely defeats their purpose. Like a non-sectarian party which gets continually asked which religion they support - like the old jokes.
    Things won’t change here for a long time unfortunately.
