Why was the Jenkins Report not implemented?
  1. The introduction of new systems in other UK elections had not been met with universal approval.
    1. New systems had cost Labour dearly in the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Assembly and European Parliament
      1. The need for electoral reform appeared less pressing once Labour had been elected under FPTP with a good majority at Westminster.
        1. FPTP appeared to be disadvantaging the Tories more than Labour. it was said that Labour would win a clear majority in the Commons, even if the Tories won an equal share of the popular vote.
          1. It was estimated that if Lord Jenkins' proposal system (AV+) had been operating in 1997, the actual Labour majority of 179 would have been reduced to 60.
