I agree - extremes can be bad. But the Torys initially agreed with the ID card scheme in a way of curbing excessive immigration - they only changed their take on the policy when it became glaringly obvious the public was in great disagreement. Same can be said for their take on the terror holding periods, they were in agreement until the public expressed extreme opposition. Which proves, much like the Labour party, the Conservatives are not doing what they believe - but pandering to the public.
I don't think the wasted vote argument will apply soon, if they really are working on electoral reform as they say they are. And even if it is a wasted vote, you can't base your vote on 'well, I'd prefer a Tory government' when a Tory government will be twice as bad. They aren't change.
