That's a long way off politically.
A lot depending on other Parties attitudes too.

However I'm going to say yes we can.

Because he has an ace in the pack card in an emergency.
That is to adopt PR for future elections from 2034, If he now doesn't call an election for 5 years.

That could give him his 10 year plan for government.

Every single other Party would support him and Labour on PR.
Even Reform.
Only the Cons would be against.

The LlibDems, the Greens plus SNP and Plaid.
Would be looking to ensure the election win to get PR.

Farage said he was going to come for Labours votes.
He's now calling strongly for PR too.
So that could diffuse his negativity to Labour to get PR.
Because one thing is certain, the Cons and the Con membership would NEVER want PR in any shape or form.
The Cons would be firmly isolated out in the cold by ALL other Parties on the issue.
