Tory support for fptp shows they support Labour

Proportional representation is like direct democracy in that is enables voters to have their views accurately represented. Pr reduces the tyranny of the state because it gives people more choice and choice is virtue. The state arises through lack of choice. Since pr improves choice then its antithesis fptp reduces choice and so enlarges the size of the government. Parties of the left or the right which support fptp are supporting the government. Pr is permanent freedom for the voter. The only reason for either fptp party (of the left or the right) to support fptp would be to prevent freedom. It is helpful to the party of the left that the party of the right rejects pr. Fptp ensures that the centre-left party will at some point get into power and have the ability to implement their agenda. It is for this reason and no other that the party of the centre-right endorses fptp. If the party of the centre-right does not support the party of the centre-left it would reject fptp.
