Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER)
@libdems4er
If people don't feel represented by politicians - why would they bother voting for them? As Emma Harrison, CEO of Make Votes Matter says: We need to change the voting system to fix politics for the voters - so they actually feel represented, and re-engage in politics.

Sarah Olney MP spoke at the Liberal Democrats Fringe "Votes at 16: a fair deal for young people?" which also had speakers from Young @makevotesmatter.bsky.social and My Life My Say. Sarah explains here why we should encourage voting at 16:
Our system forces people to vote AGAINST people more often than they are able to vote FOR the party they believe in. That is poisoning our politics. We believe people should be able to vote positively - with hope. #politics #makevotesmatter #proportionalrepresentation #fairvotes #fixpolitics

Up and down the country residents are stuck with councils that simply do not represent them. Even in a hung council, First Past the Post delivers too many seats to the largest party. Proportional systems would bring balance, while First Past the Post throws it out the window
1/3 of the vote 2/3 of the seats 3/3 of the power That is what our voting system delivered for Labour in the last general election. Who will benefit next time? #politics #makevotesmatter #proportionalrepresentation #fairvotes #fixpolitics
No party should have a majority in Parliament with less than 30% of the vote - especially not extremists like Reform UK. But under our current political system - that is entirely possible. We have to fix the system before the next election - before its too late.

Who the fuck is 'we'? Al Jazeera, in part because of its Qatari paymasters, but more so because of its unoriginal adoption of cable news formats, personnel, and editorial assumptions, is asking us to identify with the aggressors.
