Now that the electorate has decisively opted for First Past the Post (FPTP) for Westminster elections, it is time to turn our attention to the hotch-potch of other systems used in Britain.
The Scottish Parliament currently uses the Additional Members System, The Welsh Assembly the Regional Top-up system, London Mayoral elections the Supplementary vote and MEPs the D’Hondt system except N. Ireland which uses the Single Transferable Vote.
Only FPTP has democratic legitimacy and it should be used for all British elections.
