When Reform wins, it’s “the people have spoken.”
When they lose, it’s suddenly fraud, intimidation, “sectarianism”, whatever sticks.
That’s the Trump playbook.
Poison the well so no defeat is ever legitimate.
What a joker 🤡
Well that aged well
🗳️ Multi-party politics is here to stay – Westminster needs to catch up
🎰 FPTP is creaking: tactical voting is now normal
📉 If voting feels like a lottery, legitimacy (and turnout) drops
⚠️ We’re not ready for hung parliaments/coalitions
😂💀
The Greens didn’t just surge, they won.
Voters chose real change over lesser-of-two-evils politics.
Britain is multi-party, but our voting system still isn’t.
Under FPTP, outcomes can swing wildly.
More choice is good.
Our system should reflect it.
It’s time for Proportional Representation.
The Representation of the People Bill’s Second Reading is on Mon 2 March.

The Greens are polling on 30% to Labour's 28% among likely voters in Gorton & Denton.
Labour's General Secretary on an all-staff call has reportedly ruled out a Green Party win in tomorrow's by-election.
Immigration as a political scapegoat has ballooned since the millennium.
Before 2000, immigration was just 1% of Commons contributions.
Rhetoric has outpaced reality, shaping policies, priorities, and tone of British politics.
Nigel Farage's 5,000 mile private jet flight to the Maldives backfires 🤦♀️
"If he turned up with a selfie stick to RAF Waddington in Lincolnshire, a similarly sensitive military base, he would be turned away." 🤳
Suella Braverman was elected as a Conservative. Now she’s defected to Reform UK.
Locals are calling for a by-election and accountability. If you change party, you change the contract with voters.
If she think this move has a mandate, she should put it to the test.
But he found time to take a 5,000-mile private jet flight to the Maldives for a day 🤨
This is what a broken electoral system looks like. Whatever the result, more than TWO THIRDS of people won't have voted for it.
23 hours in the air to stand on a beach and whine for clicks, while his constituents are ignored and his party’s campaign back gets the Tommy Robinson treatment.
Britain deserves serious politics, not imported culture-war theatre from Nigel Farage.
"Putin’s plan is that liberal democracy will undermine itself."
Love it or loathe the BBC, an independent news broadcaster ought to be the antidote to foreign interference and a powerful soft power tool for promoting democratic values across the world.
First Past The Post fuels disillusionment and prevents meaningful change on the issues that matter most.
We're pushing for an independent, expert-led commission shaped by citizens to set out the route to fairer voting, including Proportional Representation.

The Government's democratic reforms have some great changes, but misses an open goal: fixing how Britain votes 🥅

🤔 Votes at 16 sounds like a great idea. But what's the point if First Past the Post means millions of those votes will effectively go in the shredder? Let's give the next generation a political system that works for everyone (not just the wealthy and well-connected).

🚨 BREAKING: The government has just introduced the biggest electoral reforms package in a generation

Massive mandate? 🤔 66% of the population said different.
If we want our government to be truly accountable, it needs to be representative.
We need Proportional Representation.
I'm no political strategist but has anyone in Labour considered *not* alienating any huge chunk of their base? I just feel like they tried alienating the left and the centre left and the public sector workers and the academics, and none of those things worked great, so maybe give my idea a whirl?
