Compulsory voting shouldn't be enforced just because there's been a failure to engage millions with the 'democratic' process, that's just tarring everyone with the same brush, and many people have every right not to vote. Bare minimum, consider/try other options first - PR as an example, window of voting opportunity being rigidly enforced at the polls under the guidelines (new ones if necessary), the option of NOTA, politicians voting by conscience where necessary...

I can support that. And if not enough people vote for them they get a salary cap as well.

So you propose connecting a MPs’ pay to turnout? That would be an interesting solution to the disconnected with the voters problem.

I would accept that compulsory voting could wait
