This Blog has pointed out before, that, when the Lib Dems held the balance of power in 2010, they were not true to themselves. They could have demanded PR - and Cameron would have had to yield or call a General Election. Instead - for fear of UKIP - they cravenly settled for a vote on the ridiculous AV+.
I trust that the irony of this cowardice was not lost on readers of this Blog. With a PR system in place similar to the one used in EU elections - they would probably have got four times the number of MPs. After so many years craving electoral reform - they fell at the first hurdle of self-interest - and oh how that failure backfired on them!
