PR doesn't work for binary questions, it works for electoral representation.
Referendums are a blunt instrument.
In the general election the winner takes all and the losers are marginalised. Big majorities in first past the post are bad for democracy.
If there was a decision making process that took into account all who voted we might have a more engaged electorate.
