Proportional representation would put power back into the hands of voters

Building a better democracy

Dear John,

We’ve heard often that politics is volatile and anything could happen in the coming election, but even so, hundreds of seats across the country haven’t changed party hands for decades. Huge parts of this country are effectively competition-free zones, with ‘safe’ seats leaving voters demoralised and ignored time and again. 

The average seat hasn't been won by a different party in 42 years.

Being trapped with the same representation for decades is not the hallmark of a responsive and functioning democracy.

 

 

We don’t have to settle for a big-party stich up. It’s time to switch to a fair, proportional, way of electing MPs like the Single Transferable Vote.


Best wishes,
Darren Hughes,
Chief Executive,
Electoral Reform Society
