Analysis: "Starmer’s ban on Palestine Action was done to protect the arms industry"

@DrALJONES @wood5y @Su_G I haven't researched it, but I heard something about the Welsh elections will be based on some form of proportional representation, which worries me in that some seats in the Senedd, (Welsh Parliament), will be allocated to the reform fascists - this cannot happen.
This is the one time I support 'First past the post'....we don't need any grifters over here, lol!
@Oyu_Fka @DrALJONES @Su_G Yes, PR will be used for the Senedd elections, but all the indications since the #Caerffili by-election point to Plaid keeping out the Farage Fan Club.

@wood5y @DrALJONES @Su_G Plaid won there bc their representative had been a plaid councillor there for donkey's years, whereas the reform clown had no history there.
It's nothing like a safe bet, voting plaid....I mean, even their comment here is in Welsh - I don't know what it says, (
or care for that matter, lol!).I live in the actual valleys, and I can assure you there's plenty of people up here that are racist by nature and would welcome reform. It's frightening

Australia uses preferential (ranked-choice) voting.
It means you can vote for minor parties without being a "spoiler" or "wasting" your vote.
Eg if you vote 1 greens, but they fail to get a majority, your vote goes to your second choice. And so on.
It puts a lot of pressure on corrupt duopolies & can lead to green-labour, etc. coalitions
