A month on from the publication of the Review of Electoral Systems, where’s the ongoing process that the Government promised? Where are the opportunities for public involvement? Nothing has gone beyond the confines of Whitehall desks yet. No voter has yet been asked for their experience of elections. We've waited for a positive sign that Michael Wills and other Ministers have taken our points on board. And we've waited for the Government negative spin operation to cease, but sadly – as evidenced by Harriet Harman’s comments in the Independent - neither has happened yet. So it is time for us to crank up our campaign. The website is now fully live. The campaign actions are there waiting to be done. Many of you are keen to get on with it. So, let’s go ......
If you only have 1 minute, that’s all you’ll need to sign the petition.
If you only have 3 minutes, that’s all you’ll need to sign the petition and do the pledge.
If you only have 5 minutes, please consider donating some money to the campaign too.
And if you can spare more than 5 minutes, pick one of the other actions and let politicians or the Ministry of Justice know how you feel on this issue.
All these actions can be done online, via our special campaign website
