Remember that the Weimar Republic was all in all a near perfect democracy (at that time), one of its only flaws being proportional representation.

No he just wants a bill on AV (Alternative Voting, not AltmerVampire XD). He doesn't really want it, he's just trying to mess the Tories about.

Btw Steve Steinbeck I dispute your definition of a perfect democracy.

It's a last throw of the dice, he knows a lot of people want a change.

The Weimar Constitution was OK, it was just at the wrong time. It would work if implemented in Britain now, methinks.
