So that's there now.
What you do with a constructive vote of non-confidence is that you would all have to agree on it. And in doing it, you'd have to recognize that this is quite a big change. A constructive vote of non-confidence--again, a vote saying “We don't have any confidence in this government, but we do have confidence, and a majority of us would support, this party, with this leader, if they formed the government”--could come any time during a parliamentary session, as has happened in Germany, not just a few weeks or months after the election.
So that would certainly be a different way of operating our parliamentary system. I happen to think it would be healthy change, because it would make all members of Parliament very careful about confidence votes and save the country from constantly being on the brink of election. I think that being constantly on the brink of the election is not good for the steady legislative work of Parliament or the steady kind of leadership you want in government.
I hope this is something you will be thinking about.
I'm glad you asked the question.
