Your vote would have to be a member of the party you vote for.
That's not what the OP suggested...
Otherwise it would be the same as it is now :)

The Labour membership seem to be doing a fine job of fucking themselves over without any help from the likes of me. Let’s just leave them to it ;)Do you not think it open to some voting from those with no interest whatsoever other than to try and fuck a party over?
Leadership of a political party is for that party to decide as per their rules and no one else mate.
If the public want a say then they should join.
I suspect that this another thread that is intended to provide Hard-Left Remainers with something to think about/discuss and distract from discussing the one topic that perhaps is most pertinent:Im not sure the OP has thought this through?
I do live in hope that our political and voting system will eventually be subject to significant overhaul within the next generation, but that’s probably rooted far more in hope than reality, and ain’t coming anytime soon, irrespective.
My liver agrees with this.Not in our lifetimes I am afraid
Currently, they're elected by their own parties - a small, peripheral group with ideas completely out of touch with the general public hence why we're getting leaders who are equally extreme and out of touch with most people.
Would it be a good idea for these groups to instead create a shortlist of candidates with the general public ultimately choosing the winner maybe at the same time they vote in a local election for example?
Because supporters of other parties would vote for the most useless tosser in the race.
