  1. @NicelyManifest I am annoyed with the voting system.

    D'Hondt is better in many ways than #FPTP, but it gives far too much power to parties and it creates #WastedVotes. This year, the wasted votes have been for Labour and the Greens, handing ~4 seats to #ReformUK.

    Much better to use #STV, as in Ireland, in Northern Ireland, and in Scottish local elections. There are no wasted votes in STV.

    But I like the result. #PlaidCymru will be fresh, and I like minority governments. It keeps them honest.
