No2AV needs to be an anti-politician campaign

Am I the only No2AV supporter a little concerned at the way things seem to be going?

AV was only put on the political agenda in order to allow politicians to cobble together a Coalition in Whitehall. Yet somehow it seems to be the Yes2AV camp who has positioned themselves as being the anti-politician choice.

My guess is whichever side wins in May, it’ll be the side that positions itself as being anti-Westminster, rather than against there being a referendum in the first place.
