🗣️Today, MPs elect their Deputy Speakers using Proportional Representation.

🗳️ We don't waste MPs' votes with an unfair First Past The Post voting system.

🔥 Why should we waste ours?

If PR is good enough for them, it's good enough for us.

🎪 Great to spend the weekend in the #TolpuddleFestival marquee talking to trade unionists about electoral reform

Over two thirds of Labour's affiliated trade unions now have policy in favour of Proportional Representation

"People are looking at PR through different eyes now. First Past the Post is absolutely straining with the complexity of the modern world"

🌹 @AndyBurnhamGM tells #Labour4PR why democratic reform must be a first order issue

🗳️ To restore trust in politics, we need fair votes
