It looks like this problem is assuming that Parliament uses plurality voting with more than 2 options. It seems like it shouldn't be a problem if all votes involve only 2 options (an up-or-down vote on a single bill). If we want the rules to allow votes between more than 2 options, it seems fixable by using a different voting system such as approval voting.
