Our electoral system, First Past the Post, robs millions of voters of a voice. It creates 'safe seats' where MPs can safely ignore huge sections of their constituency.
And it distorts our democracy.
We’re fighting for proportional representation - where every vote counts.
The Prime Minister blaming Junior doctors for hospital waiting lists is one of the most despicable things he’s said
& for the record he’s offered them a crappy real terms pay cut
If like me you stand with the junior doctors who sacrificed so much to keep us safe RT this widely
I think everyone should send love to @carolvorders
She’s tirelessly highlighted Tory corruption and taken a stand for for those suffering under a hellish government. Her heart is in the right place and her moral compass is pointing in the right direction.
She’s a good woman.
New info for you. I've been harassed by Johnny Mercer's wife for months.
This is from just one day in April ⏬ + much more abuse elsewhere
I didn't respond at all
Until he mocked military using foodbanks. She's paid c£45k on MP expenses (+200% pay rise) to do this?

Must be doing something right...my words about anti-foodbank MP & his wages being twisted by the Tories today into trying to label me an education 'snob''....what a joke...🙄
They can't think of anything else to have a go at....
HOWEVER, I'll let my record in education do the talking inc
helping 500,000 children with their maths during lockdown...giving bursaries for young people and schools with disadvantaged backgrounds like mine....helping Blunkett introduce the Numeracy Hour....governor of inner city school......education books for decades.....recognised STEM Ambassador....I could go on.
Always a believer in encouraging young people to achieve their best, in whichever way that comes around, to be strong and happy and confident.
Anything else being espoused is offensive, targeted, predictable Right Wing nonsense.
PS Tories....this attack won't work. It just makes us more determined.
PPS thanks for all your support...we'll beat them in the end ❤️❤️
Please RT
@O2 is there an easier way to report scammers (especially the code-reset-do-not-share-with-anyone sort)? I get them quite a lot but hanging around on hold for half an hour is a bit tedious.
Dear 🇬🇧,
As we approach the NHS 75th anniversary, here's your reminder that 10 years ago, it was ranked the #1 healthcare system on Earth. You don't need a new system. You need a new govt that won't intentionally destroy it for their own financial benefit.

Are you now going to upgrade to paid? I’m only doing it if the people I connect with do it! (If not we should go somewhere else).
Pls RT if you care about the NHS- that’s the group of people I want to connect with! Ju
@KarlTurnerMP The answer is simple. So long as someone's peak earnings haven't exceeded that of a PM, they're entitled to comprehensive, taxpayer subsidised legal assistance.
That would even things out a bit.
@LeroySkeete Remarkably, professionally, yes. Despite countless numbers contracting COVID-19 after "Eat out to help out", somehow he has ended up as PM.
Moneywise, who knows. Probably, but his household has more cash than it knows what to do with so it probably won't even register.
@AndyCobley@TanjaBueltmann@USSpensions Oh, great. So because I already have a free Experian account, I can't actually use this thing. Cool. I'll wait for the "technical issues" to get resolved. @Experian, are you part of Capita too?
