It doesn't matter if you're a Labor fan, the good times won't last. If you don't install proportional representation this will come back to bite you in the ass as it has before.

Don’t cast this as anti-Green. The right wing Reform party is twice as deprived.

Proportional representation is good for all fringe parties.

Your comment confuses me. I never said there was anything anti-Green, just that the saddest part (for me) is that the green party is under represented in parliament in our existing fptp system.

I fundamentally dislike reform and everything that they stand for, but it would be fair if they had proportional representation too.
