We don't have to wait until the Tories decide they want to improve democracy. The vast majority of social change happens from the grassroots up, it's up to the general public to push for it. I personally will be pushing for improving the standard of news coverage in the UK, so that when the time comes to push for proportional representation, we'll be better placed to see it put in place.
- pbhjpbhj 10y agoWe already voted on PR and it was terrible, somehow they managed to get the worst possibly version of PR on the ballot and it was voted against; if the Tories retain power I can't see them moving for electoral reform from the top as FPTP is keeping them in a majority. How do you see the grassroots transitioning the UK voting system for general elections, what power do we have if the MPs don't want it?
