re: #221 Cheechako

Everyting contributed to the discussion so far falls under the banner of pragmatic centrism, and it’s a damn shame there is only one party fighting to that end.

I know some difference between parties is good - one to focus a little more on government intervention, and the other a little less - but only having one party any where near the centre ground leads to extremist fighst and inertia.

Small differences can be overcome and the public served - even if they then begin to believe politics is boring, but only having one party even vaguely close to governing with the situation we have in mind and of the believ that actions have consequences is mind blowingly numbing.
