I don't think only leftwingers are pro-prop.


Simply, FPTP is a prehistoric system, the most unfair, the less exciting (for hardcore election-night fans^^) and... and simply the worst system in the whole universe.

... at the elections or the system?  (Or both, which I'd entirely sympathise with?)

Both are entirely awful.
