The Labour NEC including Starmer block Andy Burnhams chance to stand in the Manchester by-election.
#AndyBurnham
Itโs become normality that Starmer says one thing to get elected as Labour leader, then does the opposite, just like on PR.
#getPRdone
But there is always a post: ๐๐ฝ
Andy Burnham has announced that he is seeking permission to stand in the upcoming Gorton and Denton parliamentary by-election.
If he won and became an MP, Burnham could mount a leadership challenge against Starmer.
Burnham is a strong supporter of Proportional Representation๐ช
This Mayโs elections are expected to bring chaos because our voting system is broken.

Great letter from business leaders in the FT highlighting how chaos under First Past the Post has caused economic uncertainty and hurt growth.
โAn electoral system that truly represents the electorate will be good for business, good for politics, and good for the British people.โ

๐ณ If first-past-the-post delivers a Reform Government on just 25/30% of votes, it will either be full of Tories booted out in 2024 or propped up in a coalition by
the Tories.๐คทโโ๏ธ
Itโs time to
Get PR Done so that representation is equal to votes, otherwise โFaithful Votersโ lose & โTraitorsโ WIN ๐น

A good article with explanations of voting systems:
โReplacing First Past The Post is the first step on the road to government renewal. Itโs one that young people may want to invest some time in.โ

"Evidence shows that PR leads to higher turnout, more representative governments and more stable policymaking."
Yesterday in Parliament, several MPs raised the urgent need to fix our voting system.

First Past the Post, the voting system that turns multi-party politics into a lottery.
