    Not sure what kind of reform that should be though. Other countries have parliamentary democracies and seem to function pretty well. Maybe replace FPTP with PR? Or, is it just a matter of not electing so many shitheads?
    I just think we should suspend judgment on Boris until we have all the facts through an inquiry, police investigation, and parliamentary commission...then we should explode him.

    PR is one. Some other ideas for improvement (but not necessarily political reform as such):

    Removal of whips.

    Pay enough money to attract competent people to politics.

    Employ genuine experts in the cabinet and civil service to run government functions.

    Fund parties from the public purse, not trade unions and rich individuals and companies looking to gain an advantage

    Pursue criminal charges against misue of public funds, lying in the Commons and to the public.

    Edit: prevent somebody becoming PM with only 80k people backing them.
