Well said, Lox. As a member of the Green Party, I think that PR, or something akin to it, is essential for smaller parties with an informed and popular agenda to be represented. It takes away the argument that there's no point in voting for the Greens because they don't stand a chance and, for this, I'm prepared to confront the far right, in the form of the BNP and their buddies UKIP, on an issue-based agenda. As you say, we need engagement rather than apathy.
