    That's actually a pretty good idea. Why don't we do that?

    I do like the way the bar chart colours align to political parties.

    Don't worry. I'll make sure you get the answer we agreed on.

    He only asked for a second. If he uses more, he would have to get Suity out of the sock drawer.

    I suppose its how much do you like coalitions, it also very hard to vote out a rotten apple who is a party heavyweight with PR, for example Ed Balls would be given one of Labours votes.

    I think Alternative voting would be better where you rank candidates 1-x, also means that you know a candidate has at least 50% of the vote, however as this was rejected in 2011 I don't see the appetite any time soon.

    Now how do I draw a cock over the options for a protest vote?

    Stick with FPTP. The party with the largest minority has the absolute right to rule. 37% of those who voted have all the say.

    Plus I'm jolly fond of the HoL voting system. One-person-no-votes.
