  • The Extraordinary Resurgence of Manchester Is the Best Model for Closing the North-South Economic Divide
    Financial Times: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/a0513f2a-b7bb-11e4-981d- 00144feab7de.html#ixzz3SZw6S2Ao The extraordinary resurgence of Manchester is the best model for closing the north-south economic divide A young man in jeans, a blue T-shirt and rollerblades glides across the shiny grey floor of The Sharp Project in northeast Manchester. Seconds later, a colleague follows him on a skateboard, slaloming towards the canteen. Working in a 200,000 sq ft space — roughly the area of two Manhattan blocks — has encouraged some occupants to find alternative ways of traversing the office. The former electronics factory is salvage from a wreck. The long decline of industry during the 20th century left empty warehouses, mills and factories strewn around Greater Manchester. Some remain derelict but many have been reclaimed by a new generation of entrepreneurs. The Sharp Project is home to more than 60 companies. Rows of converted shipping containers house small businesses from a data-driven forensics lab to a post-production studio. Bright geometric lines of orange and red illuminate the otherwise grey, white and black arena; the place looks like it was decorated by Piet Mondrian. Students from a nearby school mingle with techies, marvelling that a workplace near them includes a ping-pong table. “It’s like Silicon Valley,” a pupil says. Only an item on the lunch menu belies the location: chips and gravy is a Mancunian fuel. In his office, Andrew Daniels recalls growing up in Manchester in the 1980s and early 1990s. The managing director of Degree 53, a digital design company named after Manchester’s latitude, says that “the city centre used to be a terrible place”.

  • Stalemate by Design? How Binary Voting Caused the Brexit Impasse of 2019
    Munich Social Science Review, New Series, vol. 3 (2020) Stalemate by Design? How Binary Voting Caused the Brexit Impasse of 2019 G. M. Peter Swann Nottingham University Business School, Nottingham NG8 1BB, United Kingdom, [email protected] Abstract: Between January and April, 2019, the UK parliament voted on the Prime Minister’s proposed Brexit deal, and also held a series of indicative votes on eight other Brexit options. There was no majority support in any of the votes for the Prime Minister’s deal, nor indeed for any of the other options. This outcome led to a prolonged period of political stalemate, which many people considered to be the fault of the Prime Minister, and her resignation became inevitable. Controversially, perhaps, I shall argue that the fault did not lie with the Prime Minster, but with Parliament’s stubborn insistence on using its default binary approach to voting. The outcome could have been quite different if Parliament had been willing to embrace the most modest of innovations: a voting system such as the single transferable vote, or multi-round exhaustive votes, which would be guaranteed to produce a ‘winner’. Keywords: Brexit, Parliament, Binary Votes, Indicative Votes, Single Transferable Vote, Exhaustive Votes 1. Introduction This paper considers the impasse in the Brexit process that developed from the start of 2019. I argue that an important factor in the emergence of this impasse was the use of binary voting – the default method of voting in the Westminster Parliament. I shall argue that alternative voting processes would have had a much greater chance of success.
