Damn fool idea.

It's funny that opponents of PR never mention Germany.
You mean as another country without a government?

And where tiny parties can blackmail larger parties into instituting
their policies in return for a few more % of the vote.

Like the DUP in the UK, you mean.

What the DUP wanted was a bit more dosh for NI, which had been
short-changed in recent years. And it's not a coalition.

Neither have we heard anything from them in recent months - that is
they've not been popping up with fresh demands every five minutes.
Unlike the tiny parties in coalitions.

And they've been told they won't get the dosh until they sort out
Stormont. So boot on other foot really.
