AV Sports Day

AV is an unfair system, where the person who finishes third can end up winning. This film looks at what would happen if a school sports day was run under AV - and highlights why you need to vote 'No' on May 5th.

Promoted by Alan Mabbutt on behalf of the Conservative Party, both at 30 Millbank, London, SW1P 4DP

Cameron, you and your traitorous government are going to pay for what you are doing to us. Now they are pushing the green tax lark. This government all want us to end up like a third world shit hole. Time for a revolution and everyone of you corrupt scumbags, are going to be hung. Destroy the LibLabCon.

@mryoheylol purely because of ads like this which are not only misleading they are a flat out lie

[mryoheylol]

@irishgodfatherchris can I also add that you are AUSTRALIAN. You're on the other side of the world and you celebrate Christmas in the sun. It's up to the British people to decide how they vote and they have chosen.

[mryoheylol]

@irishgodfatherchris yes, but they didn't get ALL the seats which means that the remaining 55% still got represented and were able to take part in debates on behalf of their constituencies.

[irishgodfatherchris]

@mryoheylol I said a majority of the votes and a majority of the seats (Labour in 2005 got less that 45% of the vote)

[mryoheylol]

Yes. Labour got a Majority of the seats in Parliament election before last.

[irishgodfatherchris]

@mryoheylol that didn't answer my question

[mryoheylol]

@irishgodfatherchris I'll answer your question. Not the last election, but the one before. Which is only 2 or 3 years ago. And the Labour party got a majority of the seats. Tho only reason we have a coalition government now is because the Liberal Democrats lied in their election manifesto and so got many votes because of promises they didn't keep, student fees is the most used example. So I predict that for the next election. The conservatives will most definitely win.

[irishgodfatherchris]

@mryoheylol question when was the last time a party got a majority of the votes and a majority of the seats, the UK is the only country that I know where 40% of the overall vote can translate into 70% of the seats, here in Australia (which by the way we want to keep Preferential voting) if a party got 40% of the vote they'd probably lose horribly.

[mryoheylol]

AV is wrong. I 100% agree with Cameron.
