Democracy is dead. It's time to take a long hard look at our voting system. Get behind the campaign

We had a socialist government within our reach in 2017. People across the country supported radical progressive policies. So why should the Left be interested in Voting Reform?���️

@MakeVotesMatter when representative democracy is being openly discussed on prime time tv, you know there's something going on…

What are the alternatives to Capitalism? - "I'm increasingly thinking it's democracy, it would be revolutionary to give people a voice and a say in their institutions and work places, why don't we actually do it?" - @graceblakeley on #NewWorldOrder with @frankieboyle

We will never get a truly balanced national economy until every vote counts equally. https://t.co/mQsE6j01Mw

Westminster’s first past the post system masks the diversity of our cities and country, as - unlike most ways of choosing MPs - each constituency can only elect one MP to represent that area’s diversity of interests and opinions. https://t.co/tW7snJpwQF

Exclusive: The Conservative Party has said the Electoral Commission should either be overhauled or abolished altogether.

The suggestions are set out in the party's submission to the Committee on Standards in Public Life, which is reviewing the watchdog.

Our banner drop on Westminster Bridge this afternoon!

We #DemandDemocracy - we hope that in a few years we'll be back to celebrate the adoption of a democratic system of Proportional Representation in this parliament!

[Make Votes Matter @MakeVotesMatter]

This is your 36th weekly reminder that the UK has absolutely no measures in place to ensure its Parliament is a fair representation of the voters.

If you're not happy about this, take a few minutes to show it on Saturday and lets #ChangeTheVotingSystem

The illusion of choice in a two party system.

"Party donors, friends and the PM's own brother...these appointments show the Lords is a laughing stock. Three dozen new unelected peers makes the chamber look like a private member's club" - @darrenhughesnz on BBC News

People have been calling for Proportional Representation in the UK since the 19th century.

These calls have been delayed, deflected, obfuscated & belittled.

But this year, we're going to move the dial.

Join the movement and let's #ChangeTheVotingSystem

22.6 million. That’s the number of votes that didn’t count towards the result in December’s General Election, according to new analysis by the Electoral Reform Society.

[Make Votes Matter @MakeVotesMatter]

We need to replace First Past the Post with a system of Proportional Representation, so seats match votes and all votes count equally.

Join the movement. Make it happen.

YouGov poll found that a staggering 76% of Labour members think the party should back #PR, with just 12% opposed. Labour must end its opposition & support a fair voting system https://t.co/IaAITGWG1H Thanks to @Labour4PR for its efforts to make PR official @UKLabour policy
