Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill (Money) (No. 3)

Proceeding contribution from John Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill.

I agree with the Secretary of State about single-Member constituencies. As he wants change, however, he presumably thinks that Members here who did not secure 50 per cent. of the vote might have been better replaced by others. According to his research, how much would a Parliament elected under the proposed system differ from one elected under first past the post?
