As much as I agree that people need to be persistent, steady and patient in their political participation. This doesn't work so long as you're importing foreign-voters en-masse that are largely voting for a specific party, or voting for politicians as a way to reward them for allowing such importation to occur.
Or, have some sort of middle ground between the large gap of representative and direct democracy. Sort of what Switzerland is doing whereby any movement can force the government, by virtue of having enough votes, into having a nation-wide referendum. And it has to be binding for the politicians, to the spirit and letter of the referendum results. Unlike what we're seeing in the UK now.
