And to this I ask what I always ask; does that extend to the seats and influence that Reform and UKIP prior to them would’ve gained? UKIP alone would’ve gained between 60-82 seats based on their 12.6% share.
People think that PR would provide some amazing diversity with the greens, libs and palatable “nice” parties getting representation.
Statistically based on historical voting, it would let in the very people that the lovely, considerate modernisers so despise - namely the Reforms and UKIPs of this world.
But if 12.6% vote for a party, they should get representation they deserve shouldn't they ?
I'm sure Clacton are very happy now they got what they voted for and are getting the representation they wanted and deserve
