MPs back proportional representation system for UK elections in symbolic vote

78% Informative
Vote on a Liberal Democrat bill calling for a PR system for UK parliamentary elections and for local elections in England was passed by 137 votes to 135 .
It is believed to be the first time the Westminster parliament has backed such a plan.
Measure was introduced as a so-called 10-minute rule bill, which gives MPs that amount of time to make the case for a bill before a vote.
