The total votes for progressive parties usually outnumber votes for the Right. We should beware of how we interpret that
In simple terms, the progressive/regressive classification is as flawed as the binary choice offered by FPTP.
Voters too often choose flashy performers rather than trustworthy, competent, hard-working leaders
Opponents of FPTP (like me), have to learn to argue for coalition government.
When Labour offer the electorate someone they could imagine as a Tory, they do well.
It always surprises me that people think PR would mean never having conservative governments. Have they never looked at the actual election results in countries with PR?
