Brian Regan @bgregan.bsky.social · 14/05/2026The simplest change would be preference voting,a form of STV used in Australia. It would not require removing local mp’s but make a ranked choice available on the ballot so all progressive parties can exchange votes in a legal explicit tactical voting without ambiguous nods & winks 000

Brian Regan @bgregan.bsky.social · 28/02/2026If people are upset about this then why not get off the couch and vote. With so many not exercising their right to vote why not let others taking an interest and paying taxes have a say. I believe taxation without representation is a famous phrase! 170

Brian Regan @bgregan.bsky.social · 08/02/2026Speaking from Australia that has compulsory voting - I’m amazed how Americans talk about their great democracy but only get off the couch to vote if their hip pocket is affected. Where is the national sense of responsibility for what your powerful nation is doing? 5331
Brian Regan @bgregan.bsky.social · 08/02/2026Australia has a national electoral commission that runs the election and sets boundaries. But unlike the US officials at the top are not all partisan elected posts but career professionals who have pride in doing an ethical fair job. 5151
