When we vote, constituencies don't really matter, our local geography isn't important when it comes to politics and we vote for (on) National issues. The result of focussing on locality means that we end up choosing (giving preferential weight to) the more popular parties. It skews the outcome in favour of popular parties and exacerbates this feature.
FPtP makes popular parties more popular and less popular parties even more obscure. The result is that preferences, between parties, are magnified. FPtP magnifies the differences in popularity between the parties and is bad for the minor parties.
Why do we have FPtP? What's the point?
When are people going to realise that FPtP is a terrible system!
