The Labour Party has an annual staff wage bill of over £23 million, including pensions.
This massive expenditure can only exist because of first-past-the post.

Labour spent over £23 million on wages and pensions in 2018.
Based on their total headcount of 441 staff, that's an average of £54,000 per person.
But, as the 441 number includes 56 part time staff. The average wage and pension bill for full time staff will be higher.

Anyone who's worked for a large organisation knows that the first rule is not to rock the boat.
In other words: make sure everyone keeps their job and gets regular pay rises.
So any Labour person arguing to end the FPTP gravy train will be painting a target on their back
