"Some seats around the country haven't changed hands in over 100 years." On Day 7 of 12 Days of Democracy, councillor @carlcashman.bsky.social reveals one of his reasons to support the campaign for Proportional Representation. ...and what are your reasons? ✨

"Make votes matter," said Westminster's newest MP Hannah Spencer at our Manchester rally last year. "Our vote is a right and our vote should count!" Regardless of who you backed in this race, this is a message we can all unite around 🫱🏽‍🫲🏻

"I'd love to throw it in the bin." At #LabourConference2025, Livvy from Young Make Votes Matter asked Labour members about their opinions on the First Past the Post voting system. Here's what they had to say 👇

During the Second Reading of the Representation of the People Bill, MP after MP got up to point out what's missing from it: fixing the voting system. The problems with FPTP can no longer be ignored - and neither can the growing calls for PR. 📣 Here are just a few highlights:

🎁 12 Days of Democracy: Day 3 🎁 Today's present will be opened by... @nadiawhittomemp.bsky.social! Let's see what's inside 👇

🎄 We're on Day 6 of 12 Days of Democracy 🎄 Today Croydon councillor Ria Patel opens a gift and reveals another reason to support a fairer voting system. PR isn't radical. It's tried and tested. Watch to learn more!

"I wonder how many people are prepared to play by the system in the future, when you take into account that (...) 1 in 5 of the nation actually voted for the government." It was great to speak to Nigel Evans about why he changed his mind about electoral reform, and how FPTP undermines trust.

📺 WATCH: Today at #PMQs @ollyglover.bsky.social asked Keir Starmer about the UK's broken voting system. "Does the Prime Minister still have full confidence in the First Past the Post system to deliver strong and stable government?" "Yes I do," responded our 6th Prime Minister in 10 years 👀

"As Reform climb in the opinion polls, it is evident that they, like the Labour Party, could win on 34% of the vote," warns our CEO Emma Harrison at the @labour4pr.bsky.social rally. Or less - recent polls show them winning on as little as 25% of the vote. We have no time to waste. We need PR now.

"PR puts the power in the hands of voters rather than in the hands of politicians." Such an important point by @appgfairelections.bsky.social Vice Chair @lisasmartmp.bsky.social. Under FPTP, big decisions are made within the large parties. Under PR, voters have real choice.

De'Aaron Fox has returned for the Spurs and you see his impact right from the start. First set is Castle setting a backscreen for Wemby. Only that's a fake to get up Wemby screening for Castle. Thunder defend that, quick swing to Fox who drives and finishes. Adds a layer.

tRump rarely misses an opportunity to play golf, but oddly, he chose to stay at the White House today. He even insisted on missing Don Jr’s wedding this weekend to make sure he was at the WH today. I actually expected a shooting today. He wants funding. #ProudBlue #WHShooting #EpsteinBallroom

As the World Cup comes to NY and NJ, fans are being asked to pay $150 roundtrip just to get to MetLife Stadium. That’s more than a 1000% increase on typical fares. FIFA is getting $11 BILLION in revenue from the World Cup — they can cover the $48 million for transportation to and from MetLife.
