| Jan 27, 2021 at 11:14 | comment | added | Kaz | @pickarooney The OP was specifically asking why the parties themselves don't want to change the system. | |
| Jan 27, 2021 at 11:13 | comment | added | pickarooney | Why should it be up to Labour and Conservatives as to what voting system the UK uses? If it's of benefit to the populace, they should be able to demand it. | |

Under FPTP you often choose the least-worst option from those who actually stand a chance. Under PR, you choose your best option. Under STV you (probably) choose your best option first, then your least-worst option. | |
