Or it could be that everyone else is just so so useless, ie labour. That people still see the conservatives as the only, and best option out there.

The other parties really do have to start pulling their socks up, they've spent the 2 years of covid doing nothing but point out the so called failings of one man

Trying to judge the order when there is eight candidates, some from the same party, is tricky.

These alternative voting systems are Emperor's New Clothes, in my opinion.
