MODERATORS
It's not my preferred system either, but it's what we have. In this specific case it works to the advantage of progress and stability.
If we had party list (preferably Norway style so there's not constant snap elections) then the UCP almost certainly wouldn't exist, and we'd probably have a coalition of centrist parties, with a sizable amount of more radical opposition parties, mostly on the right but also on the left (possibly led by Janis Irwin).
Thing is, if we don't complain when it works to our advantage then there's no reason why it would change for something better. You should be celebrating the fact that for once the party that has the majority of the seats is the one that got the majority of the vote and that should be shown as an example of why a reform is necessary.
