the2real4mafol said: It won't enough to stop a coalition though unfortunately. Some sort of PR is needed here Conservative- 10.7 million-306 seats Labour- 8.6 million- 258 seats Lib Dems-6.8 million- only 57 seats! In terms of votes, the lib dems done well, but not anywhere near well enough to run a government by themselves (which will probably never happen!- not that it matters now anyway) anyway, I look forward to seeing the presidential debates |
Why is PR needed? Smaller constituencies will result in better representation, whilst also keeping the idea of direct representation.
