Introduce regular referendums so that the people can decide major laws/decisions

Petition Details

Currently MP's are voted by first past the post method.This leads to a situation where parties like Green and Ukip have only 1 MP each for almost 5mn votes. It is time for major decisions/laws to be made by regular referendum's similar to what happens in Switzerland.
This would increase democracy

Additional Information

Many cantons in Switzerland are also allowing voting by the internet or even SMS.
