CONOR Niall O’Luby’s letter (May 14) made me smile. I had previously written about the madness of supporting AV by the “desperate Dans and Calamity Janes” of British politics.

On the basis of AV support in the local elections, I would love another say at the general election. We would all see the benefit.

For the benefit of those who haven’t quite got it yet, it would expose the Liberal Democrats as a bunch of attention-seeking opportunists, devoid of understanding complex issues beyond the media’s range.

It would also speed up the recovery process if one party held the majority of seats because we rid ourselves of the blame culture we are currently witnessing by the Lib-Dems on a daily basis.
