Government of Wales Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ian Davidson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bills on Government of Wales Bill.
My right hon. Friend may not have been sufficiently bold on the question of democratic accountability. In the second ballot at the last elections, 310,658 Welsh voters voted Labour and got not a single candidate elected. Given that we have already heard that the turnout in the Welsh Assembly elections was low, does not that clearly demonstrate that proportional representation is unfair and has not worked?
