That is true without doubt but it is not a valid argument against replacing FPTP with PR. After all, under the current set-up every party bar one is denied any meaningful input into the agenda. One of the often unstated blessings of PR is that it forces the various parties to talk to one another and to see things from other perspectives. Surely the very fact that the two parties which benefit disproportionately from the current unfair system are effectively its only advocates should tell us all we need to know about its merits as a democractic process. |
