Oh well, you get the government that is....not what you want 

And after all your nail biting, wrinkle causing arguments neither will you

Heh heh ... all of them are untrustworthy

Apart from Farage, who tells the truth.

 

I know, im talking to an empty room now.

Even he doesn't tell the truth 

But he tries, and that must count for something.

That explains it better than I ever could

Like I said Fluffs, I really don't understand a lot about PR. How does it work?

On our way to a Crisis of Hegemony.

Call me old fashioned (again) but IMHYCO the easiest way to analyse the situation is as a spectrum between the State v. The Market. Do you want these sceptic isles to be run in the interests of the people or the abstract concept of business, or a certain point between the two.

I would have preferred a debate between Cameron, and in the absence of a true left wing leader, Milliband. The rest of 'em are just agents of obfuscation and should therefore be ignored.

Garage Joe

PR:-

Suppose an area currently returns 10 MPs, 1 each from 10 sub areas. Each MP is the candidate that got the most votes in their sub area.

 

Under PR the area would still return 10 MPs, but there would be no sub areas returning 1 MP each. The 10 seats would be allocated according to how many total votes each party got, relative to each other.

 

Let's suppose there are 1 million who voted in this greater area and let's suppose there are 5 parties 'bidding' for seats in the area. If 500,000 voters (50%) voted for party A, then Party A would get 5 seats (50% of seats available). Party B gets 300,000 (3%) and 3 seats. Party C gets 190,000 votes (1.9%) and 2 seats. Although Party D got 10,000 votes, it wasn't enough to get a seat because it polled less than 1% of the vote.

 Because she`s not named? Your original post is quite a coincidence. Did you think of it yourself?
