      What you need is a strong disciplined party that can get old timers to make way for youth (and perhaps be compensated with some sinecure).

          If they can make it from the cloakroom to the house lobby without being laser tagged, they can run for reelection

          If anything like that ever happened people like you would hate it more than anything. So would have to be combined with enough media centralization to suppress your voices (🙏)
