Reform timetable 'announced next week'

Reform timetable 'announced next week'
A referendum on the voting system will take place on May 5th next year, according to reports. The coalition committee are understood to have met and chosen that date to coincide with the elections to the Scottish and Welsh parliaments. Nick Clegg is expected to make an official announcement next week. The referendum will offer voters the opportunity to scrap the current first-past-the post voting system for the alternative vote system. Earlier reports suggested that David Cameron may be willing to support the Yes vote, but these have been rejected by the Conservatives.

Hmm, they never give us a referendum on anything we care about - and now they offer a referendum, supposedly to do with proportional representation but instead they offer us AV - perhaps the least proportional (as well as least understandable) electoral system used anywhere. Please, somebody, wake me up, this HAS to be a bad dream!
