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:

At an LDER/ @appgfairelections.bsky.social Fringe event, @ollyglover.bsky.social said "I'm spending a lot of time campaigning for Proportional Representation because our politics simply isn't working. (...) We need a politics that brings more ideas into it and where everyone's votes count equally."

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

Liberal Democrats do not believe we should have won 100% of the seats in Richmond with only 51% of the vote Just as Reform in Wigan should not have won 96% of available seats with 46% of the vote These are just two recent examples highlighting why we need to fix our politics

A message for Burnham if he becomes an MP, or even PM: Stick with it. Don't follow Blair or Farage and roll back on your commitment to PR if you decide the current system favours you To fix the country we have to fix politics & that has to start with the voting system

Changing Prime Minister 6 times 10 years makes it impossible to put the long term plans in place that we need - to fix our economy, our health services and so much more. We need to fix politics to fix the country. #politics #makevotesmatter #proportionalrepresentation #fairvotes #fixpolitics

"First past the post brings stability" "Coalitions bring chaos" Tell that to the 6 Prime Ministers we have had in 10 years Meanwhile the last government that lasted 5 years without changing leader was a coalition The arguments against proportional systems do not stack up

Belarus is the only country in Europe with the same voting system as us. Hardly a ringing endorsement. It is quite simply out of date and not fit for purpose. The government should seize the opportunity in the Rep of the People Bill to actually fix our politics

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

In Richmond, Lib Dems won 100% of the seats - for 51% of the votes. In Wigan, Reform won 96% of available seats with 46% of the vote. Lib Dems do not believe this is ok. But the Prime Minister "still has confidence" in this system. What do you think?

TikTok removed my last video and censored yesterday's. The topic was the Trump administration handing nearly two billion dollars of your tax money to fossil fuel companies as a written condition of killing American wind energy. Every single fact came directly from a federal government press release.

"You've had the purging of the press. ... I think it's a notable thing. I'm a former Pentagon correspondent," said @jonathankarl.bsky.social. "It's like [Pete Hegseth] doesn't want to face — not any dissent, because it's not a matter of dissent, but even questions that veer from the orthodoxy."
