Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

I come from the west of Skye, but that is another story—[Laughter.] Valid points have been made by hon. Members on both sides, but we should bear in mind—if we want a participative democracy—the attention span of voters, who will give only so much of their time to the message from politicians, whether it is dumbed down or quite complicated. They might do the American thing, where they slam down 140 ballots—or however many they are doing on one day—and vote the same way on a slate. We do not want that because, for example, Labour's plans, and the big holes in its spending, should be scrutinised hard in the coming election.
