Come on Matt, if Hague was wrong in what he was saying even though the Lib Dems are furiously negotiating, i'm sure they could muster up at least one person to go on camera and say he's wrong. So come on, conceed that Hague is being accurate.

The Lib Dems goal is STV (fair for all parties & for *voters*, other PR systems would favour the LDs more than STV, but STV is the best option according to the ERS), not AV. The Tories would never offer STV though, so they have offered the same as Labour: AV. And I hope Clegg & co. consider it to be enough, as I do.

I don't think from what I have heard the Tories have offered AV, I think Lib Dems offered it concession to STV.
However it comes back to the point that its just not the time and place to be arguing over election reform.
