Excellent.
This will impact on having less party, which I think is quite fine. I don’t find any of the smaller parties are doing anything significant anyways. Seems like they are only there for more money.
when it comes to politics, less is more, i’d say…
I do support electoral threshold. More parties mean that a lot of argument in the House. This will lead to the slow output from government,because they have to wait until the House approves their steps. Then our politician will busy themselves with arguing on each faction’s stance,rather than endorsing important laws.
In my opinion ET can simplify the democracy system but also can kill the various aspiration so the big element politic has more power to dominate election and parliament. So, let everyone free to express their aspiration and find the way out with contitutional rules, nature’s selection will always be the ending.
I do believe that we need more parties to make our democracy system better. When parties can’t contribute their aspiration because of electoral threshold matter, people who elect them would never could tell government what they really want in case of they don’t believe in other party. Let anyone free to express their aspiration
I completely disagree with the change of ET. To raise from 2% is definitely a intentional plan from big parties to get the advantage from the small parties. It is really unfair. Remember they represent the people. The people vote for them (the party or CALEG is their choices and their votes must be admitted (not to be transfered and manipulated to big parties).
