Agreed. But unfortunately the only way we will win. Is to work with the lefts desire to split. It is why we need PR. Because the Right sure as hell will use the splitting against us.

But the only way we will get it. Is to accept our weakness and work around it. Green and Your Party have both indicated a willingness to work together in the past. It is down to members to vote to ensure we do. Ours splits are a good thing for democracy. Having a group of parties willing to debate and argue in parliament But still work together to prevent the right taking over. (IE confidence and supply agreement) Is the closest thing FPTP allows to a 50% plus control over the election process.

Adding support for PR changes to the agreement would likely help win support. Not to mention being just a fucking good idea.
