Re: Royals cost Britain £37m a year

purenuman as long as we are a 'first past the post' voting system their will always be immune seats, if a mp is in a risky seat and the leader wants him then he gets shifted to a safe seat. Of course if we moved to proportional voting then things like tactical voting will be cut down and vote's will mean something. Incidently I did vote in the last election but I wont be voting again until the voting system changes as my area is a safe seat.

Back on topic, 37million is very little yes some money isnt spent efficiently but I think if we are going to do something about it then much bigger wastes of money should be looked at as well.
