First past the post is bad for libertarians or Tories who appease the centre-ground of the electorate by advocating mild socialism. There is a tension within the Tory party between those who think that they need to advocate socialism to get elected and those who wish to remain loyal to their libertarian principles. Libertarian Tories are stuck with the party and cannot leave due to fptp.
First past the post is bad for libertarians who must either vote for policies they do not support or have their vote wasted.
