I just wish it was proportional representation

I feel he was well intended and just naive. When he finally made it, he quickly realized he wouldn't stay PM for long if he did, not only because the people in power wouldn't let him if he was to push another voting system, but that his party probably wouldn't win another election ever. (Ending the conservative/liberal back and forth forever).

I think he could have done it and started a strong/young party, fully embrace the change albeit taking a chance people wouldn't vote for him. But he's a traditional political boy.

After the french revolution, the people who took over did the same exact thing as before, and abused their power. When Lenin finally took over and gave Russians free elections,, they didnt vote for him. He said fuck them and took power anyway. It do be like that for these types.
