I'd really strongly urge readers who are Brits to both sign up to this and promote it to friends .Democracy isn't desk bound - A Make Votes Count Campaign: "Democracy isn't Desk Bound
The Ministry of Justice still seems to be running scared of a debate on voting systems. That is despite participants to its own Governance of Britain meetings agreeing unsolicited that 'a system of proportional representation would have a positive impact on turnout.' As far as the MoJ is concerned, it was job done with the publication of the review of voting systems. No mention in their latest workplan of any next steps or ongoing conversations on reform.
So it is up to us, not only to make the case for reform, but also to continue pressing for that public debate; taking the issue away from the parties and politicians who have a vested interest in the status quo."
