This could take account of by-elections and eventually everything would level itself out so that the need for a full-scale General Election would become unnecessary and may just possibly lead to better government [given time and supreme optimism].
As an aside, just exactly why are we having an election a year early?
I'll have to think about the 5 year bit.
We are having an election a year early because the PM thinks this is the best time. Generally when calling an election the PM must try and estimate when the best time is. Historically for a government with a sizable majority and a lead in the polls 4 years is the usual because, where as they say a week is a long time in politics, a year is an absolute age, plenty of time for **** ups etc. Also hanging to the end is frought with danger. However a PM with nothing to lose will hang on longer, Major for example had a very small majority and not much in the way of polls in his favour, nothing to lose by waiting a bit. Obviously many other factors would enter the PM's head, I just given a few thoughts.
