On May 5th, we'll be given the choice to vote in a referendum regarding implementing the AV polling system instead of the outdated and decrepit FPTP.

This video was broadcast on Monday 11th April and is full of holes and errors so I've critiqued it.

If you DO NOT understand the AV voting system, then please see this video:

Please keep any debate civil. I feel it's worth noting that No2AV don't let users comment on their videos.

  • Can anyone explain why the original No to AV video in Youtube has deleted all comments?

  • @stevesrojos They don't like criticism.

  • @eezye1295 FPTP is broken, it's failings are well documented. That argument is so tired, it was a strong one party government that tried to introduce the poll tax, it was a strong one party government that took us into an illegal war. True democracy is only attained through correct representation, a task that FPTP fails at catastrophically. Are you so dense to think that we have the government people voted for? Reform is necessary!

  • Fuck it, I'm leaving at this rate. Most people in the UK are thick, fuck what anyone has to say.

  • the public are so stupid it's unreal...

  • I don't understand why the general public are so thick

  • Their referendum was 3 minutes and 52 seconds of "I don't get it".

  • @eezye1295 If it wasn't broken, everyone wouldn't bitch about the government constantly and make me wonder who actually voted for them.

  • Congratulations UK you've given us Australians the best reason to treat you with the contempt you deserve

  • @stevesrojos they don't want people pointing out the flaws and bullshit of it

  • AV didn't even get passed, well done with your little campaign kids!

  • @eezye1295 Actually, in FPTP if a candidate gets 34% and all the rest get less, than by FPTP law, he is the winner, despite the fact that 66% of the country didnt vote for him. Does that sound fair?

  • I love how at the end, it says 'We're not thick'. Judging by the way that NOtoAV just made it very clear that the population is too stupid to understand preferential voting, we all clearly are thick.
