This week, Unite member John Doolan gives us pause for thought, 'Just as union-negotiated agreements are harder to ignore than individual complaints, legislation built on broad democratic backing is harder to unravel.” #TimeForPR #heartunionsweek

If you're a political activist in ANY party - this is for you. It takes a lot of time and effort to get teams out on the doorstep but it must be realised that people not voting is not about apathy, it's because under First Past the Post, their vote may not count #TimeForPR

There are an increasing number of MPs that believe it's time to make our elections fair so everyone's vote counts equally. A national commission is an easy way to get started. #TimeForPR

It is way past #TimeForPR

And constitutional reform to #AbolishTheLords and #AbolishTheMonarchy

I would move Parliament out of London to the NORTH too!

#AbolishTheLords

And while we’re at it

#AbolishTheMonarchy

and #TimeForPR

It really is now, more than ever, #TimeForPR.

#Labour members overwhelmingly voted for it a few years ago, and Labour said they'd "look into it".

And of course, #Starmer lied. He still wants the unfair #FPTP.

Correct!

#TimeForPR

#TimeForPR

#AbolishTheLords
#TimeForPR

And while we’re at it
#AbolishTheMonarchy too

Then maybe the UK can become the modern, civilised democracy we should be!

Women need to occupy a representative number of seats in the UK Parliament. We need to be part of that power base, arguing the case on behalf of women now and in generations to come. First Past the Post is blocking their way. #IWD2025 #TimeForPR

"The case for electoral reform is urgent and undeniable. First past the post is a system that no longer functions as a fair or effective mechanism for translating the will of the electorate into parliamentary representation." Lisa Smart Vice Chair of the APPG for Fair Elections #TimeForPR

In a Parliamentary debate at the end of January,
@alexsobel highlighted some sobering facts about the results of the 2024 General Election. Did you know that only four out of 10 voters got the local MP they voted for at the last election? #TimeForPR Photo:©House of Commons

Absolutely

#TimeForPR

UK election result if we had proportional representation British Parliament would look very different if votes cast in the 2024 election were directly translated into seats. But is proportional representation really more democratic than first past the post?...

Channel 4 has produced a great video report that explains what Parliament would look like under proportional representation and why - take a look 👇
