Aye?

What has MMP got to do with the argument?

The Nats circa 1993/96 were the most ineffectual government that we have ever had. Not because of MMP but because they thought they could run things in a FPP manner when those days had gone, and also because their power lust got them into bed with a nutcase.

They did not have the confidence or the guts/integrity to try to run a minority government.

This is not to say Lab would have done better.

MMP is a new concept and is only now starting to settle. Just recognise that there are governments in Europe that run quite well with MMP or an equivalent.
