There has to be electorial reform now to prevent a hung parliament happening in future. Consevative won the Majority with the most seats and votes; So Cameron should be Prime Minister. However, I feel that they should hold more referendoms to get feed back from the public and it is time that many MP's should respect that they are reflecting their constituent's views to the house and not their own.
