UK here, same shitty system, though it’s supposedly good at ensuring mostly-stable governments. We had a hung parliament in 2010 and it was actually pretty decent (in the sense that the Lib Dems were able to hold back the Tories’ more aggressive policies), but having true proportional representation would significantly change the UK political spectrum.

Ironically I was thankful for FPTP in our 2024 election because it capped the power that far-right parties like Reform UK could take. We now have a super strong Labour majority and 4.5 more years of them pushing through progressive policies without much opposition. Proportional representation would slow down progress in this way, because the parliament would have to constantly find mitigations and compromises. That’s actually a really good quality of a government, but the UK is in a poor state right now and needs investment desperately and quickly!

Unfortunately most people here are in their early twenties and have yet to learn about the flaws of FPTP. Sadly this was probably their most important election and they fucked it up.

So you acknowledge your part in getting Trump elected, good to know.

In a few years maybe you’ll drop this delusion that you didn’t elect Trump by not voting for Harris.

Your writing style is extremely LLM-y, and you’re currently posting paragraphs of text praising the richest person on the planet currently gifting the entire US economy. So forgive me for accusing you of being a pro-Musk LLM. I guess you’re just a pro-Musk moron instead.

Here’s a hint - when someone you admire does stuff like Nazi salutes and pose genuine threats to the US constitution, you’re allowed to stop admiring that person.

You are blatantly a ChatGPT account posting pro-Musk trite. Get in the sea and don’t come back.

Saying “tranny” is a slur.
