A step in the right direction?

Yesterday's announcement on potential changes away from the Westminster first-past-the-post electoral system shouldn't come as a complete surprise ...

... the far more important issue now (for me!) is whether the Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill can be successfully amended to actually produce a proportional system, as opposed to pure-AV, which no matter how you cut it, is a majoritarian electoral system?

A matter of days will tell us the answer ...
