That was quick!
Following on from my STV posts of the last couple of days, the Scottish Parliament votes to introduce STV for local council elections in Scotland (thanks to Alister for informing me).
I knew that a vote on introducing it was coming in Holyrood, but I can only plead English ignorance of affairs in the Scottish Parliament for not realising it was this week.
Update: For anyone who may be interested a transcript of the debate can be found here. It seems like it was an interesting (though sometimes heated) discussion. In the end it was passed by quite a large majority, with only the Conservatives and two Labour rebels voting against.
