Along with this I would push hard for a new voting system, such as STAR, so that when we're fed up with the mainstream parties that we can vote a third party without wasting our vote. You can push for it at your local level too.

Obviously. But how do we FORCE it?

We shouldn't leave this up to chance.

The democrats are nowhere near "left", just FYI.

Nothing wrong with foreign interests if they're not business or imperialist. We don't need new nationalist parties.
