Dear John,
Our recent petition calling on the Labour party to prioritise proportional representation has now reached well over 30,000 signatures. We’re incredibly grateful for your massive show of support, a fantastic result indicative of the real drive for change in this country today. However, we want to take it one step further.
We could easily just sit by and hope that these signatures make an impression on the Labour leadership. Perhaps they might. But after they ignored their own party members and other key stakeholders calling for PR, we feel that more drastic action is needed to really turn the pressure up.
If you have a Labour MP, please read on... you have an important role to play in taking this campaign forward. If you have an MP from any other party, hold tight – we’ll be in touch soon about next steps.
We want you to contact your Labour MP asking them to support our petition or explain why they won’t. It is important we know what Labour MPs intend to do to reverse the slide in public trust and confidence in democracy.
With your help, we can turn the heat up on Labour by getting them on the record, forcing them to clarify their positions so they can’t continue to evade the crucial discussion about fixing our electoral system.
With just 30 seconds of your time, you can drive the debate forward and improve the chances that a future Labour government will revitalise our democracy so that it works for everyone, not just the rich and powerful.
