*Make Votes Matter, like most campaigns, has put its public campaigning on hold since the horrific attack in Manchester, out of respect and in solidarity with those affected. We believe that real democracy is urgently needed here in the UK, so we are now respectfully resuming contact with supporters.*
Although many Labour MPs and one Conservative MP are strong advocates for Proportional Representation, neither party’s manifesto promises to make seats match votes. This is despite huge public demand for fair votes.
Labour’s manifesto recommits the party to a Constitutional Convention, which could lead to PR. But it’s not a strong enough pledge for the single most important thing we need: a Parliament that genuinely reflects the way people voted.
Help us keep up the pressure by signing our open letter: www.makevotesmatter.org.uk/open-letter-2017
Every other major party is committed to fair votes and has signed our open letter to the leaders of the Labour and Conservative parties, along with the Assistant General Secretary of Unite the Union; nine Labour MPs including two Shadow Ministers; one Conservative MP; numerous organisations including Compass and the Electoral Reform Society; public figures including Billy Bragg, Brian Eno, Catherine Mayer, Francesca Martinez, George Monbiot, Nigel Farage, Polly Toynbee and Zoe Williams; and at the time of writing over 17,000 members of the public.
Help us push PR further up the political agenda by signing our cross-party letter to Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May, calling on them both to back Proportional Representation: www.makevotesmatter.org.uk/open-letter-2017
Once you’ve signed, please share the letter with your friends on social media, by email or in person - let’s make it huge!
