Will Hutton’s analysis “Labour’s leadership is at rock bottom” in the Observer on the 23rd December 2018 whilst correct, failed to address the problems that are at the heart of the sorry mess the UK is in. At the last referendum the British public were egregiously misinformed, misled and lied to. The next referendum to resolve the crisis should ensure that EC citizens, resident in the UK, who pay taxes and young people aged 16 to 18, whose future is at stake can vote. Secondly the present political system has failed and tinkering with it will not solve the problems. There needs to be a political reformation that brings in proportional representation, a federal system of government with a reduced Parliament and an elected second chamber to insure that the iniquities and inequalities of the north south divide are vanquished.
