Voting reform.

So it looks like there's a real possibility we might switch to the ATV way of voting (which apparently we must now call AV). What do you mean - what's that? You haven't been paying attention! Read my post dated 31/5/2009 - and I shall be testing you later! But the point is, will it make any difference? Nobody really knows, but I've seen suggestions that it would produce an increase of maybe a third in seats for the LibDems, and perhaps between 1 and 2% more for Labour, both at the expense of the Conservatives. So although it's nowhere near PR, it would almost certainly produce a hung parliament most of the time - which really will satisfy nobody and might be considered the worst of all possible worlds.
