I have never been more disillusioned by politics than I am at the moment. I will be voting Green in the hope that nobody has the stupidity to vote Tory again and labour has to rely on a coalition to form a government. Maybe then labour will see that the first past the post voting system needs reform.

Don’t further this rhetoric, at least say “won’t be implemented”, if it *could work* then we should be talking about it.
