The Longest Ballot Committee is also seeking a change to the electoral system.

It wants a citizens’ assembly put in charge of crafting a new electoral system, and argues that political parties are reluctant to make the government more representative of a diverse electorate.

This is a good thing to fight for. PP's whingy excuse is not.

I agree, it's a hard problem to solve because the people who get into power with the current system have the least incentive to change it.
