Darth Vader Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I'm fed up of hearing the Conservatives say that this is not a call by the electorate for proportional represenatation. Do you want proportional representation to replace our current voting system? Yes or No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent Orange Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I have always been in favour of proportional representation and last night's election strengthens my opinion. It's about time for electoral reform! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynic Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 For too many people there is no point voting as the majority held by 1 party in their constituency is always going to be so high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want proportional representation to replace our current voting system? Yes or No? It wasn't though was it, the party which proposed it only got 23% of the votes.

Darth Vader Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 It wasn't though was it, the party which proposed it only got 23% of the votes. I presume, like myself, other people voted on a number of issues. I believe it is wrong for any party to presume we do/do not want this, when we have not had a referendum on the single issue.

PR was one of the Lib-Dems core policies, people had there chance to back it, and only 23% of those that voted did.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plekhanov Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 PR was one of the Lib-Dems core policies, people had there chance to back it, and only 23% of those that voted did.. Because of course all those who favour PR are single issue voters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't vote Lib Dem, because overall, I felt another party's policies overall were more in line with what I wanted, but I still feel it is time for proportional representation here.
