Coogan and Vorderman back Liberal Democrats' electoral reform pledge
Labour are the ones to convince. LD doesn’t have the power to bring it to fruition.
Didn’t they play this game when Nick Clegg ran the party? After which they gave up on it as soon as they entered into a coalition with the Tories?
LD have been asking for PR voting at least since the 70’s. They have never took it away from their manifesto AFAIK. They could not get Cameron to accept it. There is a huge difference between negotiation and removal.
Labour and Conservative are happy with FPTP because it is easy to bribe the small amount of people in the swing vote areas. The rest of the country gets ignored. Smaller parties cannot compete in the funds to do this.
Sorry everything I have heard is the to contrary of that. Do you have any source to indicate that?
Got a source for that? Here’s one that contradicts you: theguardian.com/…/keir-starmer-defies-call-for-ch…
