The fuss that's being made over 0.32% of #GDP in the next #Parliament in 4 years' time is astonishing, & assumes - falsely - that #Labour will still be in power in 2030 to determine the level of #defence #spending, when, at the rate things are going, it's far more likely to be #ReformUK, God help us. Of course, if #proportionalrepresentation was to be introduced & implemented in time for the next #GeneralElection, that would be FAR less likely!

I'm glad this includes proportional representation, even if it's in the form of Ranked-Choice proportional, rather than open list. I also agree that congress should have the ability to overturn Supreme Court rulings with a vote without requiring a signature from the president. I'm not sure whether I think this should apply to all rulings, or only rulings not explicitly based on constitutional grounds.

How to Democratize the United States

Donald Trump’s authoritarianism has been enabled by long-standing antidemocratic features of the US state — the same features that have time and again blocked pro-worker policies. The Left needs a serious program aimed at democratizing our political system.

@ChrisMayLA6 Sadly, political debate in Britain is stuck on the broad category of #ProportionalRepresentation (PR). This mostly means #dHondt or the #AdditionalMemberSystem (#AMS).

#SingleTransferableVote (STV) is used in Scottish local elections, and in Northern Ireland. #STV is vastly better PR, 'cos it facilitates new entrants, removes tactical voting, and disempowers parties. Ideal for our times, and invented by a Brit: Thomas Hare.

And STV has been used for the House of Commons.
