This is the problem you have when party lists determine who has a chance of being elected and who doesn\’t in a multi-member constituency.
It\’s entirely stitched up by the party insiders.
Add in, say, the tax funding of political parties and you\’ve a recipie for a self-selecting elite governing the country for evermore.
How lovely, eh?
I spoiled my ballot. I doubt I’ll have been the only one.
