"Am I the only one who wanted to print this out, roll it up, and deliver it to our own Minister of Social Development and Employment?"

A problem I have with referendums (or a)is that the decisions have to be informed, and the source of information depends on who has the most money to spend on advertising.

It took some years to recover my nail growth when we were looking at alternatives to FPP.
