Model resolutions
Large numbers of Constituency Labour Parties have already passed motions in favour of Proportional Representation (click here for a full list).
Following the general election, we're asking all CLPs - even those which already have policy on PR - to convene another meeting on voting reform and discuss a motion on PR. This will:
- Confirm your CLP's ongoing support for voting reform
- Keep the issue live for members (particularly new members)
- Send a strong signal to MPs that this is still an issue of great importance to Labour members
- Enable your CLP to respond swiftly and decisively to policy consultations.
LCER is happy to provide a speaker for your meeting.

IF the 2019 election had been held under PR
How different would politics in the UK be today if the 2019 General Election had been held using a different voting system?
Quite different is the answer. What could that difference have meant for Brexit? Free-flowing customs? Pandemic handling? The funding of our NHS? Watch this short video and suggest a discussion is held on the topic in your local Labour Party branch.
