Sure, but theforum membership is a bit different - you
shouldn't get a vote just by making use of the open
archives, just like I don't get the same voting rights as
MPs because I read Hansard.
I think we'd get a more accurate sense of the electorate if
it were restricted to list subscribers (including nomail ones
for those theforum members who prefer to read it that way)
Cheers
