> Choice is great. But on the other hand, not much policy making gets done without the presence of parties. I think a cutoff at about 3-5% is useful. This way single-issue parties only get seat if their issue is supported by a reasonable part of the public.
Of course but as per your comment on the other thread, you won't get rid of two party politics, without encouraging smaller parties to evolve. Those which are just too niche wiil die anyway or in the uk system lose their deposit.
