🚨 When Justin Trudeau resigned, he said he regretted keeping First Past the Post in place.
We're writing to Keir Starmer to warn him not to make the same mistake.
Sign our open letter to the PM and tell him: back PR before it's too late. 📝

Incorrect. This is a property of the single-member constituency system, irrespective of election method (FPTP, AV, whatever).
Why are proponents of PR so reluctant to say so?
But any honest discussion of electoral reform in UK is hindered by the ‘FPTPvsPR’ obfuscation, as promoted by the likes of @electoralreform.bsky.social, @makevotesmatter.bsky.social and (see below) @yougov.co.uk
I do see benefits but would prefer greater devolution of power to Mayor's Coubcils Parish Councils an elected 2nd chamber.
What is required is more principled politics and politicians.
