I love MMP, can't understand why there are still people who haven't got the idea. First past the post was only barely democratic. The politicians only increased the number of MPs to 120 because they knew everybody hated MPs and they were hoping that would be enough to make people vote to retain FPP. Too many people were too smart for them though, you can't fool all the people all the time...
Anyhoo, now that the dust has settled I'd like to see the number of MPs cuts back somewhat.

MMP makes the politicians focus their loyalty upon each other rather than to the electorate - I.E. voters! . We jumped out of the frying pan into the fire with MMP.
STV? - inclines to hold the politicians more loyal and accountable to the voters - a bit more to think about but given as much time as MMP it would be ironing out any problems by now.
