Allow the public to participate in a no confidence vote.

When the governing party has an overwhelming majority of MP’s over all other party MPs. Any vote of no confidence will result in a biased result. I feel that parliament should then call on a number of public members to vote in order to even out the biased result. Or request the nation to vote.

Background

It is my opinion that there is no point in calling a no confidence vote when the governing parties MP’s outnumber all other parties MP’s placed together as one. The simple result is that the governing party will vote against the no confidence vote and remain in power regardless of their failures or conduct while governing the country. Thus leaving parliament and the country at risk of all types of failures. Because a no confidence vote is pointless.
