The AV referendum campaign really has been a damp squib. Any interest for those which do not get excited about constitutional and political reform has only been in the (alleged) spats between “Coalition Colleagues.” It really wasn’t meant to be like this.
Personally, I will be voting YES on 5th May. But the YEStoAV campaign has been pretty poor. No, it’s been abysmal. The messages have been far from clear; the argument has not be set out and it’s not had the right mix of champions to carry the case. The whole “make your MP work harder”thing has been silly.
