How can a government with party associations ever effectively represent the people it's designed to serve?
Q. Truly, whether 2 parties or 10, how can a goverment work effectively for it's people when elected officials vote with their party? My question is why should parties or any such associations among elected officials not be abolished? Thinking more on this, when I go to the voting booth, I vote in private. There was a big Union issue which surfaced last week about secret voting. There's no peer pressure.

A. Many other types of government can be found, all over the world. With which would you suggest we replace our Republic? Or, do you even have an idea for a new and different one? This is a very good question, and it's very easy to agree with abolishing parties, but many alternatives I could suggest would be even worse. Obviously, the party-in-power is there because it represents the majority. I'd like to see more "watch-dogs", more regulations for the untrustworthy, more emphasis on Civics in school, and more mature decisions than the ones that created this economic crisis. Hopefully, this President will right many wrongs!

A. This report, like much Government sponsored propaganda get the right answer by asking the wrong question. The report says there is no evidence that immigrants are getting priority over uk citizens for housing. But that is not the point. If these immigrants were not here, the social housing they occupy would be available to indigenous inhabitants. There is also the argument abouts "points" for housing. The so called "waiting list" is not really that; its not like a bus queue where if you wait long enough you get to the top. It is a list of people arranged in points order, so if someone moves into your area with greater need thus more points, they go ahead of you in the list. AS many immigrant families have large numbers of children,… [cont.]
