@jeremycorbyn #Labour could become part of the solution, but first they need to step away from being part of the problem. #MakeVotesMatter and scrap FPTP.

https://fullfact.org/politics/labour-gorton-and-denton-by-election-chart/ - highly selective statistical reporting seems to have become established as a permanent feature of our broken FPTP electoral system. #MakeVotesMatter - and actually #VoteGreen !

Poll quoted in Labour by-election ad doesn’t reliably show it’s the only party which can beat Reform – Full Fact

A bar chart shared by Labour is based on a very small sample size.

🚨If an MP changes their party, they should face the voters. Simple as that! 🗳️

I’ve signed the #petition calling for mandatory by-elections when MPs switch sides. Let's protect our democratic voice! 📢 #MakeVotesMatter #Politics #Justice

MPs shouldn't be able to switch parties without asking us first!

I just signed a petition calling for mandatory by-elections when an MP changes their political party. We vote for a specific manifesto and set of values—if that changes, we should get to vote again. It’s only fair. Will you sign too?

UK politics in 2026 will be all about power, money, and influence — not just policy. If we don’t speak up for transparency now, the same old systems will roll on. It’s time for real democratic reform. #UKPolitics #MakeVotesMatter

Was on a #makevotesmatter call a couple of days ago when someone I admire said he only switched to supporting #ProportionalRepresenttion when he realised you didn't have to use #multiMemberConstituencies. He disliked this because of less local representation. As an #STV fan, this triggered some soul searching.
I've come to the conclusion that the constituency link requirement is bogus. Effectively, it is telling voters before they even vote that their most important issue is local representation. Clearly, that is an important consideration but I bet given the choice most voters would rather be represented by a like minded person than someone who lives near by. For instance, I've frequently considered writing to my MP. Only done it once because 99% of the time he has clearly demonstrated that he opposes what I want, so he ain't going to advocate for me...

Our voting system has been letting people down for decades, but this new era of multi-party politics is exposing just how broken it really is.
Unlock democracy teamed up with Make Votes Matter, the Electoral Reform Society, Open Britain, and Compass to ramp up the pressure.

please will you sign the joint petition?

Sign the petition… Tell the new Democracy Minister: it’s time to scrap First Past the Post!

I've already lived through this. The Tories merged with the Reform and then at the next election, an MP originally elected under Reform became Prime Minister. Don't let it happen again!

Don't believe me? Google Stephen Harper.
