Assurance of expertise for MPs should be on any reform agenda, whether done by training and exam post-election (and pre taking up position in the HoC) or exam before being allowed to stand as candidate. #NotesForUkReform

@damocrat @mrjamesob Brexit has really showed the lack of competence of the majority of MPs. You shouldn't be in power just because you're good at bin collection. MPs should have to show competence in law, trade, etc or have to take some sort of training. That's how it's done in the real world.

Maybe we’ll eventually get a written constitution by stealth. #NotesForUkReform

@Bi99le5 @JudyWeb92176381 @bbradleymp Definitely need reform in this area. Mandatory exam before standing for parliament (reasoning and Uk knowledge) and further training with exam after election (constitution and parliamentary procedure) #NotesForUkReform

@eyejosh @gavinesler It ought to be. Massive press reform needed. Independent press complaints evaluation. Realistic penalties and consequences. Fines based on a multiple both of daily turnover and the no. of days between lie and the published apology (which should be front page). #NotesForUkReform

@alison1928 @GirlGiada @DavidWCummins And keeping the the populace uneducated and manipulable serves the needs of the current right-wing government perfectly of course. #NotesForUKReform

... the same problems demonstrated by the HoC, I.e. some obvious numpties and party yes-men getting in via safe seats (4) there something to be said for a 2nd chamber populated by experienced and hopefully more balanced individuals. /2 of 2 #NotesForUkReform

So ... the UK is headed for another PM that the electorate have had no say in ... About time we had system which separates the (electoral) vote for a political leader from the vote for a local representative in the commons. #NotesForUkReform #TrExit

So, Cambridge Analytica used Experian (credit rating) data in order to microtarget Facebook ads (secret ads) in the Leave campaign for brexit ? Something is deeply wrong here, democracy is being undermined, #NotesForUKReform @carolecadwalla

@cuibono2016 @MAJ57069065 A good start. However, you’d need to ensure the elected 2nd chamber was not as screwed up as the commons, with members overly concerned with career, getting re-elected, and toeing the party line, over and above doing the best thing for the country. #NotesForUKReform

@108Maia108 @MagEve2 @HackedOffHugh To me the problem is how they got in there in the 1st place ... which points to huge mess in the current system, in particular (FPTP + Power of Big 2 Parties) -> Safe Seats + We all vote for parties -> Numpty candidates with no alternative 4 policies we like. #NotesForUKReform
