I suggest that on the death of each tenth soldier killed, a parliamentary seat shall be drawn by lot for an immediate by election. Lip service and political correctness are no longer enough. I might prefer restoring the accountability to Tower Hill but that might be considered too extreme.

I can see some interesting 'trending' on Twitter in the coming months! This is such a great initiative.
