It's time to clean up our politics and get a voting system where everyone's vote counts equally. The will of the people must be reflected in every UK Parliament seat. Only then might people start believing in politics and start voting again. #TimeForPR

Transforming how we elect MPs to make every vote count in UK general elections. @electoralreform.bsky.social's brilliant graphic shows how votes translate into seats under First Past the Post and how sometimes your vote simply doesn't count. #TimeForPR electoral-reform.org.uk/campaigns/el...

"to bet the legacy of this Labour government – and all the progress we’ve made – on a dysfunctional and outdated voting system would be a missed opportunity." labourlist.org/2026/02/labo...

Over the weekend, more than 50 academics urged the government to shift away from first-past-the-post, warning that it is not designed to handle multi-party politics The letter, shared with PolHome, said it risks electoral "distortions" on an "unprecedented" scale at the next general election

It's no surprise people stay at home when they know their vote makes little difference.

A world where every vote counts is within reach

This week, Unite member John Doolan gives us pause for thought, 'Just as union-negotiated agreements are harder to ignore than individual complaints, legislation built on broad democratic backing is harder to unravel.” #TimeForPR #heartunionsweek politicsforthemany.co.uk/heartunions-...

This fight is just the latest chapter in a long history of trade unionists fighting for our democratic rights. We've won the vote for working people, now we need to give that vote equal power.
