Re:UK Election: What difference would proportional represent... by ZeroGravitas on Saturday May 09, 2015 @09:08AM (#9516255)
That is true, I don't like when people dire fly translate votes from one system to another since the systems distort the type of parties that even exist, never mind who votes for them.

On the other hand, I think this generally underestimates the improvements possible by shifting to a more proportional system.

I'm interested to see how the conservatives manage to introduce some kind of English devolution while at the same time retaining their inbuilt electoral advantages.

Also any article on reform of the UK electoral system should end with "We have an unelected House of Lords that people have a birthright to sit in, and has Bishops. End this embarrassment now".
