    It’s only temporary. Once they’ve bribed farage sufficiently he’ll disband the reform party and the tories will return to dominating elections through the corruption of FPTP. The absurd thing is Labour refuse to accept this and will blunder on refusing to accept we need a proportional electoral system

      Labour have just won a 174 seat majority on 34% of the vote with FPTP.

      There would be no benefit to them in changing the system.

        In my opinion labour’s victory was due to the utter incompetence of the conservatives and unexpected success of the reform party. I don’t believe these circumstances will be repeated so labour will get demolished as usual in the next election. The same applies to the lib dems getting 70 seats under FPTP. It won’t be repeated so they must work together to repair the damn system
