What paper is this from? Bet it's the fucking daily telegraph.

Election system is absolutely fine and has been for years until reform eats dirt, then suddenly it's in dire need of reform.

The electoral system is far from fine.

You don't get to care about it selectively only after it harms your favourite team

I couldn't care less about the Tories. My interest is a fairer system for the benefit of the smaller parties such as the Greens.

You aren't the daily telegraph

Working as intended, Tories got fucked as they should, but to be fair it may be a case of the new boss same as the old boss

Nothing will change save for the method of the fucking....

I don't care that Reform might be a catalyst to change the election system. Proportional representation would be better for the country.

The Telegraph was my guess too. I support voting reform, but it's hilarious to see people/Tories whine about it now.

It'll be interesting to see what the Lib Dems do now, since FPTP has absolutely catapulted them forward now. Hopefully they'll still advocate for PR.
