We’re less than a week away from Unlock Democracy's fantastic Electoral Reform Special event with four fabulous guests! Between 7 pm and 9 pm on Tuesday 17th, the Impact Hub in central Birmingham will play host to Emily Randall, Senior Campaigner for Unlock Democracy, Josiah Mortimer, Communications Officer of the Electoral Reform Society, Frances Scott, founder of the 50:50 campaign and Klina Jordan, convenor of the Voting Reform Team. Sign up at http://www.unlockdemocracy.org/events/2015/11/17/electoral-reform-a-west-midlands-politics-of-networks-special-event Each speaker will discuss their organisations’ campaigns for national and local electoral reform, Lords reform and more equal gender representation in the Houses of Parliament before leading discussion groups in how attendees feel their campaigns can best be advanced. This event is being organised by Unlock Democracy Birmingham in conjunction with the West Midlands Politics of Networks. Activists involved in the Politics of Networks have recently been devising a set of Core Beliefs: 10 principles that a movement should follow, including the following: “Democracy gives us all a say and should be the basis for all public decision-making.” This Core Belief will also be debated as part of the Electoral Reform Special: group discussions will consider how we could add to this principle. Join up here: http://www.unlockdemocracy.org/events/2015/11/17/electoral-reform-a-west-midlands-politics-of-networks-special-event Thanks for all of your support, I hope as many of you an make it to this event as possible!
