【选举】戳破“反对党当非选区议员”迷思 陈立峰:反而稳固执政党“超级多数”优势

工人党后港单选区候选人陈立峰,反驳原律政部高级政务部长英兰妮“反对党当非选区议员”的论述,点出非选区议员的局限,致使反对党议员无法深耕选区,且只会巩固行动党“超级多数”议席的优势。

早前,英兰妮指出,非选区议员有12人,选民无须担心国会里会没有多元的声音。

但陈立峰戳破迷思,指非选区议员有局限,敦促人民不应轻易落入对非选区议员的圈套。

尽管非选区议员仍能在国会对各种议题提出异议,但他直言,非选区议员的身份,使得在野党难以在选区深耕。例如,他不被允许在凤山单选区举办活动,但在工人党的选区内,败北的人民行动党却比工人党候选人获得更多便利。

如果人民持续相信设立非选区议员的目的,反而会成为在野党无法深耕在选区内,因为他们不被允许这么做。与此同时,反而会增加人民行动党极多数(super majority)的问题。

“再者如果有一天人民行动党失败、或做得非常差,到时是否有其他政党能接管?这种情形会是国人想要的吗?”
