Re: Constitutional change the UK way (part 2) (none / 1)
There are good and bad aspects to this.

Good in that it is much harder for a PM to manipulate the financial cycle and go for election at an opportune time.

Bad in that you will get lame duck parliaments that simply limp on until finally put out of everyone's misery.

All in all I think it's a good reform.
