Is that STV for the consituency MPs in an AM system? STV for a single member consituency on its own strikes me as potentially being less proportional overall.

Does RON get to stand?

single winner STV is a disaster and far worse than FPTP. (i think you all knew i'd say that!)

it is frightening how many people believe that single winner STV will elect the compromise candidate, although perhaps slightly heartening that they believe that that is what ought to be elected in the absence of overwhelming support for one candidate. maybe condorcet doesn't have as far to go as is sometimes thought in winning over the hearts/minds of the electorate.
