Say one thing; do another. Hardly the highest standards in public office we were promised. Then: "because appointments are for life, the second chamber of Parliament has become too big." (2024 election manifesto) Now: create more new peers than the number of hereditary peers you are set to remove.

Young people who begin voting at 16 are more likely to stay voters for life. We can’t wait to see that energy in UK elections 🗳️ #v16 #VotesAt16

Even long-time defenders of First Past the Post are struggling to make its case. George Osborne warns that in today’s multi-party landscape, FPTP can no longer be seen as a bulwark against the extremes, but more like a “floodgate”. Any party topping 30% could sweep away its rivals.

"To not have a cap on donations risks much more than to have one." In yesterday’s evidence session on the Representation of the People Bill, Dr Sam Power argued for a cap on political donations, warning that without one, the very rich will continue to exert outsized influence on UK politics.

“Multi-party politics is here to stay - and given our electoral system, which is built on the premise of two-party politics, that means a lot more volatility, a lot more uncertainty.” Looking ahead to May, @robfordmancs.bsky.social predicts “a patchwork quilt of political fragmentation.”

“The traditional foundations of Conservative and Labour politics are not there.” At this week’s webinar, Prof Sir John Curtice brilliantly explained why the two-party system is breaking down like never before. Electorally, he argued, “we are in a different world.” The voting system must catch up.

“We do have to maintain a bedrock of freedom of speech and of peaceful protest... Otherwise, you don’t have democracy, you’ve locked it up.” Baroness Hale says it plainly. Yet just this week, MPs approved more draconian anti-protest measures. When dissent is suppressed, so is democracy itself.

"What did the billionaire lining his pockets ask for in return?" At PMQs, Keir Starmer raised the obvious question about Farage’s £5m gift. But if big money buys influence, surely no party or politician should accept mega donations? Better yet, stop them at source: cap donations across the board.

In 2024, the govt's Lords spokesman warned that ministers setting a Strategy & Policy Statement for the Electoral Commission was “inconsistent with the Commission’s role as an independent regulator." Just over a year later, the govt admitted plans for a new Statement to reflect its own priorities.

So glad she’s speaking out‼️

Imagine what else they think they can say when there's no camera? What else are FF saying on doors for the by-election? This government's policies are pushing the crisis people are facing in terms of council rents, and the housing crisis overall. They just want to deflect, deflect, deflect!

NCAA's new "5-in-5" model sounds great on paper. But let's be real about what this actually is -- a backdoor to age limits that will have ripple effects for college sports.

Fully get fans only care about what happens to their team but this is the West Ham one from last match No penalty for THAT?!! It’s like defender is trying to give a pen away!! The VAR guy is Michael Salisbury who ignored the Saliba one… #Everton live a tough life in this bent shitshow league 👍🏼😀

Game time!

No it was resentment with Kamala. Full stop. Dems internally didn't want him to pick her as VP (AOC spoke about it). They didn't support her after Biden dropped out (which is why he threw his support behind her soon after). It was never about Biden's health as much as it was about the person as VP.
