    That demands that (apart from Caroline Lucas), no-one is discussing electoral reform in this country during this particular election? We have just hosted the NATO summit during which the subject of the great variance between Britain's electoral system and that of most (if not all), of the rest of the member states of the EU forced it's way on to the msm but disappeared as soon as mention of the existence of any kind of international agenda faded once more into the background. Corbyn too must see the way of it, the SNP aren't going to go away and neither will the devolutionist agenda in the rest of the nations that make up the union (incl. N.Ireland -becoming united with the south-), if he truly wants to protect the people of this country he must see that "coalitions of the willing" may well be necessary in order to circumscribe the worst accesses that conservative Britain is capable of.
    How can we tolerate a continued Remoaning for another referendum on EU membership that does not equally if not far more vociferously campaign for a proper referendum (with more choice -incl. at least one proportionately representative system-), on electoral reform?
