Re: Brexit Discussion (Follow First Post Rules!)
[QUOTE=Angua;35964377]The five most healthy and stable governments have PR. Consensus builds in voter engagement and long term planning. With the political swings less extreme governments have to listen to the electorate. Every vote matters.

What we have is not a PR elected system. No one in GB could not vote for any of the candidates currently propping up the Tories. Much as no one anywhere but Scotland could vote for the SNP. Yet because of these area specific parties we have a messy and inconclusive confidence & supply arrangement, with a party that cannot bend enough to run the NI government.


When 57% of Cornwall did not vote Tory, why should they have 100% Tory representation? This is neither representative or democratic.[/QUOTE]

Because that's what the majority voted for as their selected political party.

I'm not sure which countries you have in mind when you talk about 'the five most healthy and stable governments'. They might be 'stable' because no-one can ever change anything.
