Dear John,

Fixing our democracy is a crucial first step in achieving the lasting change we so desperately need to get this country back on its feet.

Whether it’s protecting our planet, rebuilding our relationship with Europe, or fixing the cost of living crisis, it all begins with a truly representative democracy.

There is a consensus for bold action on climate change. The majority of people think Brexit was a mistake. And even the rich and powerful don’t deny they are getting richer while everyone else is struggling to get by.

But is the government listening? No. They are focussed on their own priorities.

A properly functioning democracy would force the government of the day to address OUR priorities, not theirs.

The simple truth is, under First Past The Post, none of this will happen any time soon.

We need to fix our democracy if we’re going to end the cycle of short-termist governments. Government’s pandering to the extremes and unwilling to address the major issues our country is facing.

That’s why we’re campaigning for Proportional Representation, an essential first step to getting a democracy that works for everyone.

Will you add your name to thousands of others, calling on Labour to prioritise the introduction of PR, if they win the next election?

Thank you for your continued support.

All the best,

Mark
