Would be interesting to know what government we should get if we were simply able to total all the votes across the UK, rather than consituency based system we do have. Will any one party, or even parties be able to stand up and say "we wuz robbed".

It is in their manifesto, but they have finally realised that bleating about the electoral process is not a vote winner and have spent their time talking about issues people actually want to consider for a change. I have been impressed with the Lib Dem campaign this time round, easily their most professional yet.
(The only thing that irritates me is how they wheel out
Liberal Girl, their trophy by-election-winning teenie, at any and every opportunity - she's going to make a William Hague of herself if she's not careful).
The Lib Dem position is to hold a referendum on electoral reform, not to change to PR automatically.
