Everything that's wrong with the FPTP system summed up in a single headline from the Grauniad.
I'm not a Tory but they shouldn't be locked out of power due a a rubbish system. Large swathes of the population shouldn't go through life knowing their vote will never matter, leaving them feeling disenfranchised. People shouldn't be forced to hold their nose and vote for a party they don't support simply to keep a party they like less out of power.
Still, FPTP benefits the two largest parties so best stick with that then.
