Replace "first-past-the-post" with "Proportional Representation"

Petition Details

Hold a referendum to allow the electorate to choose how they are governed.

Additional Information

All political parties when in power have in the past discussed the option of "Proportional Representation" and then decided it will not be in their best interest to change.
Most democratic countries around the world use Proportional Representation as that best represents the electorate so take the decision away from UK politicians and allow the electorate to decide how they want to be governed.
