Let me put it to you this way:
Under proportional representation, the BNP are guaranteed seats in Parliament.
(There are other problems. Proportional representation removes the link between a representative and any specific group of people to represent; if MPs have no constituency to represent, then there is no tie to any local issues or local groups. The sense of accountability is greatly reduced; it's just about nationwide party image.)
Preferential voting is better; I've yet to see a better system at all. Learn from Australia! We have the electoral system you get when your parliamentary system is designed much later than most, and the people designing it look around at the ones that came before and say: "What works? What doesn't? How can we make this better?"
(ObGodwin: Proportional representation is the electoral system that got the Nazis into power.)
