Agree; dismissing a post as 'Juvenile nonsense' was rather a ...... err ....... juvenile comment to make. I'm not sure exactly how close to PR the French system is, but their equivalent of the BNP (le Penn's lot) are not far away from the top job there either, are they?

Posts 3 and 4 were about STV rather than straightforward PR.

Maybe I read it wrong, but it was the perception that somehow it would be terrible if four million people were appropriately represented in Parliament.

The thought of 2 or 3 hundred tories makes some people's blood run cold, as does the thought of 2 or 3 hundred labour to some other people. It's democracy. You put up with it. If necessary, fight to keep it.

But that's democracy. Are you opposed to democracy in some way? Democracy means that people are allowed to vote for things you disagree with - the alternative would be a one party state.

That's about it - there wouldn't be any direct relation between the MPs and the constituencies. You'd just have the Tory party's favourite tories, the Labour party's favourite labourites, etc, etc.
