It's also true that with our mayoral election, the vote was Thursday, result Saturday, and the new mayor was sworn in on Monday. That's quicker than the process to elect and then swear in new Members of Parliament. It felt that those criticising democracy in Bristol weren't doing so from any real basis of knowledge of other systems, and that the way it was done in Bristol was actually quite efficient and cost effective
