Don't forget the sticky bit and chown root for extra convenience!
Opinions are like arseholes. Nobody needs yours either.
I live in a historically tory safe area. Where both boundary changes and polling. Make it a lib dem predicted win.
Dear Lord. Your punctuation. Is. Atrocious. .
Perhaps with RCV (or whatever) you can elect leadership that will allow that.
I choose to send Trump to prison, not because I'm easy, but because I'm hard.
Correct. But if we stop blowing money on Orban and his cronies, then it can be sent to Ukraine instead.
Noice. That makes €10.8billion for Ukraine.
If only your dad had had this pill
Things are even worse in the US. For president you need to get a plurality of the votes (more than any other candidate) nationally (let's ignore the EC for now) which means that any vote not for the two candidates who stand a chance is wasted.
But also in their congressional elections they set up the system so to get in you have to get a plurality in some district where only one representative will be sent each time (FPTP). So even if your party has 15% nationally, unless they can win a plurality in some districts, they won't get any representation.
Thats why 3rd parties are pure vote wasters in presidential elections and in Congress you only have a handful of independent reps who somehow win their districts without party backing.
Cobtrast that with most of Europe (including Denmark(?)) where you have proportional voting for a parliament and then parliament forms a government. You can vote for your green party and while they might not get to be Prime Minister, they might be needed for the parliamentary majority to form a government and get the environment ministry. Win! Or they might just exert slight pressure in parliament directly, which is where laws are made. Not a loss!
The poor 'Mericans, meanwhile, are screwed. The only reasonable choice is between the two major parties at the elections. To turn that oil tanker they have to get involved in those parties and try to affect which candidates are put forth and then the party even skips that step entirely if they happened to have won the last presidential elections.
You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.
And for the Europeans in the audience, we have 240V and 15A in a normal wall socket for twice the charging speed of our American friends but half the speed of their level 2.
