AV was always a complete non-starter - Maybe these people just have their heads up their *****?

The problem with 1st past the post is, as you know, that a government can have overall majority in the house of commons when e.g. only 30-40% of people actually voted for them (the ones that bothered to vote at all, that is).
1st past the post ignores the wishes of those 60-70% of people who didn't vote for the government.
Proportional representation seems inherently fairer. It works well in Scandinavia (who have something close to PR) and other places.

The original idea was that each constituency voted in the man that they want to represent their own area in Parliament. Seems a fair way to do it to me.
