I have always believed that it is best to seek the opinion of everyone and go with the majority thought. In practice I have found that sometimes people can't or won't provide an opinion, what then follows is someone takes control of the situation and imposes their own views. It is an interesting concept that I need to explore further. It sounds like a really interesting book.

In practice I have found that sometimes people can’t or won’t provide an opinion, what then follows is someone takes control of the situation and imposes their own views.

It is an interesting concept that I need to explore further.

So in that sense the human crowd, too, can be cleverer than the individual. But it only works, apparently, if each individual is allowed to form their own opinion idnependently.

The AV Monarchy there's a thought... I think you just came up with the idea ;-) I personally don’t think it will go through but we will know soon enough how it panned out.

One candidate should only get one vote. But you know what? I'd like to see an AV monarchy. Poor Charles, I'd probably give him my sympathy vote for him to rule for 5 years. Has anyone come up with this AV monarchy idea yet? Let me ring my local MP. AV is not fair.
