Certainly one to think about

In fact it's hard NOT to think of a reason not to go ahead with this

Though you have to wonder if they'd need safeguards - a shift in parliament's ruling majority/team-up for instance...

I don't like systems where you can "recall" elected representatives, purely because in the USA someone always starts one without fail when someone is elected. Personally I think if an MP has done something serious enough to warrant a recall petition, then you're probably going to remember it when the next election comes round.

Yeah, but that could be four years away

No it has to be by next June ( 2010 ).

i think that the lot of them should be sacked

then create a lower elected house with no more then 400 MPs
and have to stand for re-election every 4 years

an upper elected house of no more then 100
and have to stand for re-election every 10 years

and that is just the start of reform that is needed and required …

No, I mean if they were to get caught out sooner
