✨It's Day 4 of 12 Days of Democracy ✨ Today, Peter Tatchell opens a box and reveals another reason to support Proportional Representation: it can protect our democracy from extremism. "Our rights and freedoms are too precious..." 👇

"All we're doing is rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic whilst ignoring the huge iceberg that's actually causing it to sink." 🚢 British politics is broken. It's been broken for a long time. Just replacing this or that politician won't fix it. It's time for system change.

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:

🎙️Our CEO Emma Harrison was on the Shelagh Fogarty show on LBC, discussing some of the results we've seen today: "If Labour were really bold, they'd think about democratic renewal and say, let's talk about changing our voting system."

🎄 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!

The era of two-party politics is over. Under First Past the Post, this means: ❌ MPs most constituents didn't vote for ❌ Single-party governments that most of the country never wanted @appgfairelections.bsky.social Chair @alexsobel.co.uk is right: this is not a way to run a democracy.

Disinformation thrives when trust in politics is undermined. Our voting system leaves millions of people without a voice, eroding trust in our democracy. Thank you to @appgfairelections.bsky.social Chair @alexsobel.co.uk for making this important point in Parliament.

First Past the Post keeps promising stability and delivering chaos. Governments are elected on a minority of the vote. They impose their agenda without listening to or negotiating with anyone. They fail and collapse. Rinse and repeat. There is a better way. It's time for PR.

🎁 We're on Day 10 of 12 Days of Democracy 🎁 Today it's Peter Rugman's turn to open a democratic gift box and reveal another good reason to change the voting system. Let's talk about... Chaos 🤯

📣 BREAKING: Lord Neil Kinnock calls for Proportional Representation! The former Labour leader joins a growing number of voices pushing for voting system change. A consensus is building: FPTP must go. Watch a clip from his interview with @emmaburnell.bsky.social for LabourList and the Fabians👇

Artemis II astronaut Reid Wiseman shares video of himself relaxing at a beach "I have never in my life felt peace like this."

Brian Kilmeade mentioned the fact that Russia is helping Iran. Russia has also benefited from the Iran war as the U.S. has temporarily lifted some sanctions on its oil sales and more focus has been pulled from Ukraine. Why is Trump so chummy with Vladimir Putin? 🤷‍♀️

President Reagan described America as a beacon on the hill. Sadly that light seems to be fading. But I believe it has burned long enough for the other democracies to see it. In the 1940s refugees fled the Nazis built the atomic bomb and won the war. 1/3

Ashley St. Clair shows Hasan Piker the texts between her and Elon during the 2024 election "He actually talks like this? Oh god, you literally sound like him. You changed the way you talk to sound exactly like him. You guys send memes to each other?!" "Stop! I wanna die!"

NYC has the best public transit in America. I've fought in the State Assembly to get every dollar to my district and in Congress I'll do even more. New Yorkers deserve public transit that's supported, accessible, reliable, and gets you to the game on time (go Yankees!)
