Dear
John,
Event Reminder: Thursday 20th May -
6.15pm
What does it all mean? Understanding the 2021
elections.
Join me and a panel of polling experts and
politicians as we try to understand what
happened on polling day last week.
I'll be speaking with Paula Sturridge,
Deputy Director at UK in a Changing Europe, who
specialises in using large-scale quantitative data sources to
investigate how social values have influenced voting
behaviour at general elections, and the EU Referendum.
We will also be joined by polling expert and
peer, Lord Hayward, and newly-elected Assembly
Member, Zack
Polanski.
You can watch
the session live from 6:15pm on Thursday, 20th May.
Watch it on YouTube
or Facebook.
For many who support internationalism, the results of the election
were troubling.
As the Government looks to make our democracy less open and less
proportional, the election was also a reminder of how First Past the
Post can distort the national will.
The event promises to be an insightful and informative look at
recent electoral trends, and how we can ensure progressive and
international voices can be represented at all levels of
government.
Join Paula Surridge, Zack Polanski & Lord Hayward, as we
discuss the causes and future ramifications of the
‘Super Thursday’ local, mayoral, Scottish & Welsh elections.
Watch the livestream on Thursday, 20th May at
6:15pm.
I hope you can join
me and our expert panel on Thursday next
week.
Together, we can learn the needed lessons from these elections, and
make informed, data-led decisions in the future.
Best wishes,
Naomi Smith,
CEO, Best for
Britain
PS. The livestream event will be
live-streamed on YouTube next Thursday at 6:15pm. If
