A positive outcome from this election, along with the Tories getting thrown out of office and (hopefully) the election of a handful of Green MPs, is likely to be that the demand for electoral reform becomes unstoppable. This poll of polls probably understates support for Reform, which is ( sadly) almost certainly growing. It might end up winning nearly 20% of the votes but still only win less than a handful of seats. Labour on the other hand are likely to win a huge majority with a little over 40% of the vote, with the Tories holding on to more than a hundred seats with barely more than half of that. Electoral reform can’t come soon enough and may even contribute to building the coalition for serious action on climate change that we so desperately need.
