Proportional representation is similar to anarchy... and so then there is little point in organising elections such as this (where the electorate can fully express their views) as no laws will pass. Only fptp enables laws to pass. If pr is anarchy it is a waste of time to have pr elections. To advocate pr is to advocate anarchy.
Since we find more interest in pr on the conventional 'left' of politics we can say that freedom (pr and anarchy) is left-wing... it is the left not the right which is more interested in freedom by the conventional definition of left and right. To be right-wing is to be in favour of a big state since the right is more strongly opposed to pr... using the conventional (wrong) labels. In truth to keep fptp is not right-wing and certainly not liberal even tough it is conservative.
