The Tories will lose if they continue to support fptp

The Conservative party (known as the Tories) is synonymous with the first-past-the-post voting system. But this fact makes them unelectable to many people including those on the right. Libertarians dislike more than most other people being forced or compelled into doing something... but it is the fptp voting system which compels them to vote for the Tories if they wish to reject Labour. So it is the people on the right who are most offended by fptp and yet the Tory party supports it. The Tories support a political voting system which is most offensive to their own supporters. The Tories support something (fptp) which is bad for the right... and it is this policy which means electoral success is very difficult for them. The Tories will find it hard to do well if they do not drop their support for the fptp voting system. The Tories can only do well if they start to support electoral reform and proportional representation. The Tories can only do well if they support pr. The Tories will continue to fail if they retain their support for first past the post.
