Hey! I really don't like asking for money, and I like getting emails asking me for money even less, but I think this is really important. On Monday, the Make Votes Matter team is organising an alliance building conference of activists, members of civil society, politicians and more. This has already received national press coverage and looks like it will be a massive success, you can see more here: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/cross-party-alliance-draws-up-plan-to-secure-proportional-representation-by-2021-a6853811.html In total, with venue, catering and other event services (all kept absolutely as low as possible), it will cost us around £2000. Any donations, however small, will be very gratefully received - the rest is coming from our small team of volunteers. You can donate here by entering the password 'mvm': https://secure.squarespace.com/commerce/donate?donatePageId=56afc2da27d4bddf1be470ea Thank you all so much for your support, just a couple of quid makes a big difference. I wouldn't email you with this if it wasn't absolutely necessary for the running of the event! If you are interested in helping to spread our message further, please follow us on twitter @MakeVotesMatter and vote and retweet this poll: https://twitter.com/OwenWinterMYP/status/695310142670245889 Thanks again, Owen
