Odd how the most stable governments have proper PR, with economies that do not lurch from one direction to another.
PR makes politicians listen, it makes them compromise, it makes them plan for more than the next 5 years. It helps people engage with politics and it makes people feel their votes matter.
As a conservative supporter, the current system suits you down to the ground. It means a minority always gets to dictate to the majority.
