I was just restating the question in a way that acknowledged your nitpicking response. It's a pretty natural inference from what you said. If you weren't suggesting that the referendums would have different results then I don't see the point of your original response.

AV and PR are different things. People may have different opinions, even if your particular circle wouldn’t.

In any case, there's no referendum needed. If it ends up with a Lab Lib government next time, I expect it to just be legislated for.

Are Labour in favour of changing the voting system?

I don't think they are. Why would they be? It doesn't make any sense for them.

And even if members were, the PLP certainly aren't - as they'd lose their jobs.

Because of the SNP. Without Scotland, it would be very difficult for them to get a majority with FPTP.

the 1997 labour manifesto had a committment to changing the voting system

there was a consultation and its results were quietly buried

no reason to expect it would be different next time
