Change the voting system to Proportional Representation instead of First Past the Post. We think this would eradicate disillusionment and encourage voter participation as people could start to believe that their votes actually matter.

We think that First Past The Post only works when there are only two parties involved. We live in a more diverse society than ever. We think that if we want our politicians to truly reflect our population then we need Proportional Representation.
