Upgrade our democracy with a fairer and more representative voting system

Replace the First-Past-the-Post voting system for Westminster. Repair the crisis of trust in Politics with a proportional system so all votes count equally. The 2024 UK general election was the least representative in our history. 1 in 5 voted tactically, and 74% of votes were ‘wasted’.

Elections shouldn’t be a postcode lottery. Votes should count the same wherever you live.

We demand the government replaces the antiquated First Past the Post system with a version of Proportional Representation. This is the most common form of democracy in the world and yet Britain lags behind.

Tactical voting undermines true representation and shouldn't be necessary. Every voter should be able to vote ‘for’ good politicians and the policies they believe in, not just against bad parties.
