How we elect our MPs impacts everything.
Our healthcare. Education. Defence. Our safety. Our rights.
What laws and passed and not passed.
Whose voices are heard and whose interests are represented in Parliament.
Electoral reform it's not a "fringe issue" - it's a priority.
Alex Sobel's amendment (NC31) to Representation of the People Bill, proposed during Report stage
Trying to fix UK democracy without scrapping FPTP is like trying to put out a wildfire with a water pistol.
111 MPs have signed an amendment to the Representation of the People Bill, calling for an urgent review of the voting system.
Is your MP on the list? bills.parliament.uk/bills/4080/s...
The group's CEO said that putting proportional representation in a manifesto "is great, but the urgency is greater than that"
If the next general election is held under First Past the Post, we could get a government that 25% of people voted for.
Or we could end up in a situation where the winning party is not the one that got the most votes.
This is an emergency. Proportional Representation can't wait - we need it now ๐จ
