I don't see the need to change, myself. The FPTP system has generally
been delivering stable government here for a while now.


My general philosophy is "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"

But it IS broke! It might deliver 'stable' government but, in a
multi-party environment, it delivers MPs *and* governments for which
most of the people have NOT voted. That's why we need a change.


As far as I can see, all AV will do will replace the "More people voted
for me than anyone else" with "Less people really hate me than anyone else"
