[lbo-talk] KVH hearts Nick Clegg and the Lib Dems

[Bhaskar Sunkara]

The Labour party is standing a fair number of candidates that are running on
a "no cuts, troops out" platform and Labour, whether you like it or not, is
at least organically rooted in the trade union movement.  In districts where
TUSC isn't running candidates I would much rather see votes for Labour than
the Lib Dems (who will form the *right* flank of a Labour coalition).  Also,
the proposal on the table *isn't for proportional representation, *it's for
a STV system: http://www.cpgb.org.uk/article.php?article_id=1003867
