You will find the class presentation from today here.
As I have mentioned in class, the last slide contains a midterm question from last year. Please prepare your answer for the next week's class such that we can start our discussion with the question. In case you cannot open the link, the question is:
Some of the factors that shape
how voters make their choices vary in importance from election to
election. Why do the party ideological promises (left-right issues) vary
in relative importance in shaping voter’s choices between different
elections? Why was this factor relatively less important in Britain in
2010 than in, for example, 1983?
Also, Maria mentioned in class the mechanism for petition submission in the UK. If your petition reaches 100,000 signatures it gets debated in the Parliament. For example, the "Block Donald J Trump from UK entry" got 578,893 and got debated. You can read the government response and watch the debate here.
