No it's to stop any arrogant leader and Party governing in a hard-line fashion being heartless too after only getting 43.6% of the votes meaning around 56% of people who even bothered to vote, voting against them.
For said arrogant power mad leader having absolute power with ridiculously over inflated overall majorities.

The ONE and ONLY Party against PR is the Con Party and it's more heartless, hard-line supporters because they know they could never likely get power to be as heartless and hard-line again under PR.

It's coming from Labour, maybe not as policy in the coming election but it's coming.
I'm sure of that in a future one.
Whether under Starmer or if necessary a NEW leader.

So you're admitting that a more democratic voting system adversely affects your favourites?

Starmer staying in power isn't ideal for me, neither would Southend being represented represented by Britain first for example, but it's still more democratic than what we currently have.

Even if Southend didn't vote for a Britain First MP? Because under PR there's no guarantee that a seat would be represented by the party the seat's majority voted for. Unless the seats are allocated by votes-per-area, aka what we have now, basically.

Of voters polled Slim.
Of all the Parties who get elected and don't get elected to Westminster.
Even the N.Irish DUP.

The vast majority now prefer PR to this dinosaur system we have now.

I repeat, it's ONLY the Con Party and it's hard-line supporters who don't want PR because they know, they've then had their day of hard-line, divisive, discriminating,heartless near dictatorial governing.
