It's probably rather unlikely that the election systems already in place will be reformed, at least anytime soon. There aren't many governments prepared to kick away the ladder that put them there.
Interesting aside re: the AV system. We in this septic isle are (or were, if I've slept through it) to be given a chance to vote on whether we want to adopt this new system or keep the present first-past-the-post one. The ballots will then be counted and the winner to be used to guide policy (at least nominally, says my inner cynic). In other words, the first-past-the-post system that is apparently so badly in need of reform.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
