Letter: Let this be the last absurd `landslide'

Sir: Tony Blair could not have been more wrong when he said that Britain is not a landslide country. It is precisely because we have first-past- the-post voting that such extreme results are possible. Its replacement by a new system should be a priority of the new government; otherwise we may see a Conservative landslide sometime in the next century.
