Britain’s voting system is broken. 70 MPs are backing an amendment to finally review it. But to make an impact, we need many more. I’ve urged my MP to support it with this tool. Can you contact yours too? actionnetwork.org/letters/ask-...

"Under FPTP, parties can win huge majorities on a minority of the vote. Entire regions can be politically written off. Voters are told to vote tactically rather than honestly. Then Westminster acts surprised when people become frustrated with politics." ✍️ New blog by our CEO Emma Harrison:

The votes are still being counted, but one thing is clear: First Past the Post is broken. 🗳️MPs elected while 2/3 of voters opposed them. Majority governments on a quarter of the vote. This isn't democracy. Sign the letter calling for electoral reform 👇 secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/191527/...

😱😱😱

In Havering, Reform won 71% of the seats on 36% vote share. In Ealing, Labour won 66% of the seats on 30% of votes. In Westminster, the Tories won 59% of the seats on 35% of the vote. In Sutton, 44% of the vote gave the Lib Dems 93% of the seats. Under FPTP, whoever wins, the voters lose.

A please @labouruk.bsky.social, stop saying that it's up to us to stop Reform. YOU could stop a Reform government in 2029, by introducing the proportional representation so many in the country have been clamouring for. The only way Farage can win is through our crazy first-past-the-post system.

Local “Democracy” results from Richmond & Twickenham. 51% gives single party control. ‘Control’ as in EVERY SINGLE SEAT for one single party. No opposition No challenges No alternative views. We need Proportional representation for local elections When do we want it; NOW #WakeUpWestminister

Westminster needs to WAKE UP and get electoral reform set in motion. We desperately need Proportional representation. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Like planting trees. The best time for PR were 30 years ago. Next best time is now!

The Government needs to realise more regulation won’t fix our broken water system. We need to kick financial predators out & take it back into public control. But don’t just take it from me. Listen to a sewage campaigner who inspired Channel 4’s ‘Dirty Business’. @windrushwasp.bsky.social

Unbelievable. King Charles is STILL set to fly to the US to celebrate with Trump in April. With everything Trump is saying and doing right now - and the hate and chaos he's spreading - this trip must be cancelled. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

💥 Professor Vernon Bogdanor writes for @financialtimes.com: "An electoral system should do two things: ensure that the majority rules and that significant minorities are adequately represented. First Past the Post achieves neither."

🌹 @annadixonmp.bsky.social flags some of the major risks First Past the Post now poses for the UK ⚠️ The govt's line that it has "no plans" to address this is not sustainable 🤝 It's welcome that Ministers will meet @appgfairelections.bsky.social to discuss a National Commission on Electoral Reform

Reform could gain another MP this Thursday. That's why we're urging Labour, Lib Dem, & other party supporters to lend their vote to the Greens this time in Gorton & Denton. We've carried out extensive research and it points to this being our best chance of stopping a very real threat from Reform.

First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped. Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented. Tell Keir Starmer to change this. actionnetwork.org/petitions/th...

WATCH @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social @rory-stewart.bsky.social discuss the absurdity of our voting system. FPTP silences smaller parties while giving full power to the biggest one -even if it only wins 1/3 of the vote. Last time it was Labour, next it could be Reform. Whoever wins, the voter loses
