  I think you may be right there Keef...its probably more about electioneering. It w as discussed on the radio and although there are good ideas in what he was saying, the radio pundits felt it wouldnt happen...as who ever gets into power is not going to bring about legislation that gives them less power. We are in turkeys voting for Christmas territory there.
  
  One aspect I thought was good from this DC collection of ideas was the fixed parliamentary term idea. In other words you had an election as per schedule not when a Prime Minister decided when it was right to go for it. There is too much pointless manouvering..trying to get the best brief slot of time when things are going reasonably well, to go for it in the hope of winning. The public are kind of sick of all this stuff.
  
  Its perfectly respectable and understandable to want to win but the manouverings about are tasteless at times.
