    Yeah, 10%, or what? "Many" has many truth conditions.

    FPTP has helped the Conservatives well enough this election, but ironically FPTP precipitated this whole situation by denying Theresa May her majority in 2017 on the account of a few hundred distributed votes. Had May got the majority she wanted in the first place... Think the Brits can get around to a bipartisan electoral reform sometime soon now?





    Do you know the consequences of the French Revolution yet?
    Most current MPs would rather their seat remained safe and give them a career than reform that would only help the country and not them.

    When there was a vote to replace FPTP that the other option available was both poorly explained as well as not that great demonstrated no one in politics wanted a change.

    So Corbyn says he'll not be the leader in the next election. Will that be standing down now or in 4 years time? Please be now. Johnson needs someone to keep him in check and Corbyn is clearly happier talking to like minded acolytes than leading the opposition since his main problem is the UK electorate.
