Down with Elections!

Do you believe your vote counts in an election?

Do you think we get the best people when we vote?

Are you satisfied with the candidates that the parties present?

For many years we have assumed that elections guarantee democracy - but do they?

DOWN WITH ELECTIONS! examines elections and shows they do not meet recognised standards for democracy. In fact, our "representative democracy" is neither representative nor democratic.

There is a better alternative, a better way of choosing our representatives, a way which gives a much fairer representation than at present. It gives a parliament which takes the wishes of all citizens into account, and to which any citizen may make proposals for laws.

DOWN WITH ELECTIONS! shows how such a parliament can interact with the administration and the judiciary, how it could make fair and intelligent decisions on complicated technical questions using the "wisdom of crowds", and how it could eliminate corruption, incoherent policies, and the dominance of powerful interests and lobbyists.

THIS IS THE REFORM THAT WILL MAKE REFORM POSSIBLE.
