Repeating yet again ...
Britain imposed Proportional Representation system in Guyana.
Succinctly ...
1. No agreement could be reached on the election process/system during the numerous meetings between the PPP, PNC and the United Force.
2. During the discussions the PPP suggested a system/model based on that in Suriname which has a combination of first past the post and a constituency model.
3. Consequently, it was then agreed for the British Government to arbitrate. The British Government then imposed the Proportional Representation - PR - system for elections in Guyana.

Britain never imposed PR system in Guyana. That's totally false.
