the argument against PR is that it would fill the HoC with small party's and there would be no proper majority. WRONG - they would have to learn to compromise and work together, extremists would have to explain their position in the cold light of Democracy.
The status quo isn't working and the two main party's are loath to let go of their privilege so it's up to the people to force a change and the quicker the better.
The only nations in Europe with FPTP are the UK and Belarus,
Think on that
Most countries in Europe run with coalitions of smaller parties and are often much better governed than the UK with it's repulsive arrogant politicians!
I live in Luxembourg where PR is in force as is compulsory voting and its status as the wealthiest country in the EU, suggests excellent management of the economy.
I would like to see a list system of PR implemented in the UK as it gives the more introverted, thoughtful, academic people that we badly in government, the chance to become MPs without having to endure the soapbox experience on the hustings!
