The only justification for not doing this is protectionism. Starmer is placing party above country. We can see how damaging the Tories are. I do not want to see their likes again.

    Given the comment I replyed to.

    I think lack of local MPs is a legitimate criticism of pure PR.

    I have no idea why you would think it was. I was arguing local representation dose not really exist in FPTP as it is envissanged,

      I’m arguing that local MPs are worth having, but FPTP is unrepresentative. With MMPR you get the best of both worlds.
