#UK public’s trust in our #politics has collapsed
Only 1 in 10 people now trust the government to put the country first.
This is a dangerous territory to be in and without serious #reforms we risk people losing faith in #democracy altogether.
Introducing a fairer, more #ProportionalVoting system would start the process of restoring trust and confidence in our political system.

Here in Australia we have a mix of systems across three levels of government,.MY preference is for what is called Single Transferable Vote ( generally Ozians call STV Hare/Clarke).
Our _worst_ case is the federal House of Reps which is simpler and preferential only.
First past the post should be limited to electing who's making the tea this arvo. In no sane electorate would it be used to decide the result of a referendum. (FFS! UK)
The German (federal) and NZ systems have much to commend them.
All that said *never underestimate the capacity of the Parties* (and associated industries) to beat any system to a shape that continues *their* reign.
