A referendum was held yesterday to determine whether Britain should change its electoral system from the First Past the Post (FPTP) system to the Alternative Vote (AV) system.
By a margin of approx 70%-30%, AV has been rejected.
This is a good thing, although it will not stop the Yes2AV campaign saying that they just didn't get their message across, or it was about the personalities and not the voting system really and that if they ask again in a couple of years time and put forward a better message, of course Britain will accept the new system.
The people have spoken. Down with AV.
