Andy Burnham has put fair votes in his plan for Britain. The people who called for change deserve a real place in deciding what follows.
A previous Labour PM, Tony Blair, promised a referendum on PR, and reneged.
I'll believe Burnham is serious when PR is actually implemented and not before.
It might be advisable to relate this explicitly to actual achievements in housing, in re-nationalizing water, and in controlling neo-Moseleyites with their black garb and affected passive resistance.
It's an excuse for doing nothing. He's hoping it'll not be an issue next election. What next? A Judicial Enquiry, a Royal Commission, a Referendum?
