# More or less this
A 'no' result will be held up as the reason not to change anything for at least the next 30 years, it will be treated as vote for the status quo rather than a vote against AV. If you want reformation of the voting system you have to vote yes in this referendum - even if you think AV is a shitty halfway house - to have any chance of ever getting to a better system in your lifetime.

Vote YES to AV on May 5th!

# I assume you mean that as an argument for voting yes?
Yes!

# Yes
Clegg has been utterly supine on tuition fees and Trident.
Whatever your opinion of him we need to support him on this.

# As long as by 'support'
you mean the boisterous introduction of a red-hot crowbar into his nasal cavity?

# I think since his party are the majority in it, he has every right to try to do that.
I'll admit I admire how it's been worked out, to make the potential change slightly more preferable to the conservatives but they still fight against it.

# Doesn't the Gibbard–Satterthwaite theorem say that all voting systems are equally shitty, though?
I mean I'm paraphrasing but I'm pretty sure that's what it says.
