there seems to be some misunderstanding on exactly how the AV system will work, no matter how fair it actually ends up being I think this is its main disadvantage. Its complicated and very easy for people to misunderstand and vote incorrectly.

You do not need to place a ranking against every candidate on a voting slip, you only need to vote for your first place preference if thats your wish just like you do today. If you choose to place 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc choices against other candidates then you can with as few or as many as you like. If you dont want to include BNP at any preference level then you dont need to include them.

Your 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc choices only get used if your 1st preference gets knocked out in the first round and you actually provided those alternative choices.
