Make Votes Matter

Today's announcement marks the beginning of the end of First Past the Post.

To everyone who has contributed to our movement over the years: we can't thank you enough.

Now let's push PR over the finish line 💪💯

A message from our CEO @Emma_Campaigner:

Our voting system isn’t normal.

- It’s not normal for one party to win 63% of the seats with 34% of the votes.
- It’s not normal to always have to vote for the lesser evil.
- It’s not normal that 6 out of 10 people didn’t vote for their MP.
- It’s not normal that 21 million votes in the last election had no effect on the outcome.

It’s not normal that the UK keeps using an outdated and broken system.

Over 21 million votes in the last general election (around 3/4 of all the votes cast!) had no direct effect on the outcome.

They might as well have gone up in smoke.

We want a system where all votes and all voices matter - we want Proportional Representation.

More than 50 people attended our Bedford event featuring @YasinForBedford @IanSollom @Emma_Campaigner and Alan Francis from Milton Keynes Greens.
