MakeVotesMatter_Bath #MVM

Bath branch of @makevotesmatter, the cross-party campaign for #ProportionalRepresentation for House of Commons elections.

[MakeVotesMatter_Bath #MVM @BathMvm]

Well done to Councillors Joanna Wright @BathNESGreens and @RuthMMalloy @bathnesld, a great outcome! #ProportionalRepresentation #democracy https://t.co/wu838NnCIN

[Dr. Aaron Thierry @ThierryAaron]

I was interviewed by @reagandesvignes for @trtworld on how, in the face of repeated government inaction on the #ClimateCrisis, scientists are now resorting to non-violent civil disobedience to sound the alarm and press for change!

I’m so proud of everyone at
@BathLabourParty
who campaigned to make sure every vote counts #Labour4PR

[Peter Tatchell @PeterTatchell]

Keir Starmer made a huge mistake in not backing PR, says @Neal_Compass. Without PR Labour faces years in opposition. But a #ProgressiveAlliance could topple the Tories. In 69 seats, voting tactically for one progressive candidate could defeat the Tories https://t.co/z03Cg5rkIM

[Make Votes Matter @MakeVotesMatter]

Our next all activists call will of course discuss what happened at #LabourConference21 and what we can do next.

Open to ALL SUPPORTERS, whether members of Labour, members of another party or unaffiliated ✊ https://t.co/snQToSdEOq

Great to join my friends at @BristolMVM to campaign for a fairer voting system. #MakeVotesMatter #FBPPR

[Electoral Reform Society @electoralreform]

Since 2007 Scotland has used the proportional Single Transferable Vote for its council elections and in Wales, new legislation passed this year means that from 2022 local authorities will have the option from switching from First Past the Post FPTP to STV. https://t.co/Z4Br7xJ3VR

🌱 With less than 3 months until #COP26, did you know that countries with Proportional Representation tend to have more environmental protections?

🌍 We can't let FPTP obstruct our response to the climate crisis! 🚨 #ChangeTheVotingSystem

Big day tomorrow here in Poland. The parliament will vote on whether the one remaining independent television news station is allowed to remain on the air. If the government wins - they are begging, bribing MPs right now - Poland can no longer be considered a democracy.

[Proportional Commons @PropVoting]

#FPTP is about competition. There are winners and losers.

#PR is about cooperation and compromise. It tries to find solutions that most people can accept.

"In elections I want to be able to vote for the candidate I feel best represents me, rather than having to vote tactically or feel my vote is wasted. With Proportional Representation, I believe we will get a government that reflects all our voices."

If you know any of these MPs, maybe it's time for a serious conversation?

My article in the @Independent:

Can you really call the UK a democracy is MOST VOTES DON'T COUNT?!

[Peter English @petermbenglish]

I have lived nearly all my life in "safe seats".

No matter what I voted, the result of the election in my constituency was a foregone conclusion.

This would not be true if we had PR; and it is undemocratic.

We've been out and about in #Bath with @XRBath samba, making a big noise for #ProportionalRepresentation #MakeNoiseForPR @MakeVotesMatter

[Wera Hobhouse MP 🔶 🇺🇦 @Wera_Hobhouse]

This Government is ramping up attacks on our fragile democracy with proposals for voter ID, curbs on peaceful protest and plans to hold more elections by First Past the Post.

Strong democracy starts with voting reform. That's why I'm supporting @MakeVotesMatter.

[GET PR DONE! ⭕️⚫️🟣🟢🔴🟠 @getprdone]

British voters now dislike both main parties.

Our advice to both: Place democracy at the front and centre of everything. You'll then find the messages you want to say won't be undermined.
