Here's the agreement reached between Conservatives and Liberal Democrats:

Re: Go Da-vid! Go Da-vid! Its your Birthday!
I hope they manage to get the proportional representation measure passed. In Britain, people don't vote for individual representatives but vote for the party as a whole. However, MPs are still voted in by district similar to the US. That kind of system only makes sense when individual politicians are relatively independent (yeah, some would say that's less true in the US than it used to be, but we're still a long way off from the UK). So instead, they now have a system where (in an extreme case) a third of voters could cast their vote for Conservatives and receive 0 representation. And meanwhile, the MPs would all be voting in lockstep for other policy items. It's just not right, regardless of where you are on the political spectrum.
