Now more than ever, we need compassionate, co-operative, and effective politics. We know that Proportional Representation can deliver this. It’s the last day of Make Votes Matter’s Crowdfunder to power the campaign for real democracy. You can chip in here: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/proportional-representation-2021 

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated since we launched this Crowdfunder. I’ve been blown away by the encouraging comments and the level of support. We know that in 2021 we could change the game for electoral reform:

  • Make Votes Matter is planning a huge series of video meetings between constituents and MPs on 12 March, to build on the massive action days we organised in 2020.
  • We’re working with our diverse cross-party Alliance of MPs and organisations who believe in PR. This includes every opposition party in Great Britain except for Labour.
  • And this year is crunch time for the thousands of Labour members who want their party to back PR. 133 Constituency Labour Parties, 3 affiliated trade unions, and countless grassroots members have now officially called for PR to be party policy. All signs point towards a decision at Labour Party Conference this September.

Our cross-party campaign can make real progress in 2021. Could you chip in a few pounds to fuel all of these actions? Make Votes Matter’s Crowdfunder is open until 7pm tonight: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/proportional-representation-2021 

A big thank you to everyone who has donated so far! I’m looking forward to taking action with you this year.

With hope and dedication,

Owen and all the team at Make Votes Matter
