Over the summer we went out and asked a very simple question: Is politics working? Thousands of people said "no". People do not believe that the current political system can tackle the challenges that matter to them. Sign our petition for fair votes - let's fix politics. fixpolitics.org.uk

Lisa Smart is forced to sit down by the Deputy Speaker for daring to mention Proportional Representation when debating a bill called the "Representation of the People Bill" . Burnham's new government needs to allow this debate to happen. #fixpolitics #fairvotes #andyburnham #ukpolitics

We will not let Andy Burnham off the hook. Ed Davey pushed him on his support for fair votes again this week - and in the response he said "This Parliament must be a circuit breaker" It can ONLY be a circuit breaker if he uses THIS Parliament to do the work. We need fair votes now

“Too much time is spent bickering about party colours and not working together” People do not believe politicians work together in the interests of the country and 79% of respondents "definitely" think more cooperation would help. See the full results of the survey: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

“I do vote but always wonder why I bothered.” This is just one quote from our survey but there are many like it. 95% of respondents agreed that the % of seats should match the votes - we need to make votes matter. See the full results of the survey: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 02/09/2026

“I'm sick of voting against things rather than for things." A very common sentiment in our survey results - and one shared by voters from all parties. 96% agreed they should not have to vote tactically. See the full results of the survey: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

“A fairer voting system will force ALL MPs to care about ALL voters, not just the swing votes” We have had thousands of responses and 94% of them agree that our politics fails to represent everyone - and that's a problem. See the full results of the survey: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

Great to meet with party leader Ed Davey MP, Cabinet Office Spokesperson Lisa Smart MP, and President of LDER Olly Glover MP at Parliament today as we launch our survey results. People really do not believe politics is working. See the full results of our survey here: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

“The churn in leaders does not inspire confidence in any long term issues being sufficiently addressed.” This is just one responses among thousands we received - 90% of respondents did not have confidence in our politics. See the full results of the survey: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

"It's a complete mess." This is just one of thousands of responses we received from all corners of the UK, all age groups and all political parties - responses which delivered a rating of 2 stars out of 5 for our political system See all the survey results here: www.lder.org/fix-politics...

Politics needs more collaboration. In a multui-party world, collaboration is the only way we will be able to make progress - and as it stands, our voting system only encourages division. We think it's time to change. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

With so many under-represented, is our system really democratic? We don't have to agree with the politics of other parties to know this is unfair. When the public speaks, we must listen - and right now, our system isn't doing that. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

We need fair votes before the next election In 2024, Labour won 411 seats with 34%. As the landscape continues to change, next results could be even more disproportionate. Democracy must reflect our views - not distort our votes. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Democracies need compromise, not total control. The single-party echo chambers of FPTP hurt our politics. When decisions fail to take into account the views of the public and aren't scrutinised by the opposition, it's a sign for change. What do you think? digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

0126

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

FPTP forces people to choose candidates out of fear for the alternative. There must be a better way. When we vote for people and policies we truly believe in, we build a better politics - but that requires changing the system. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Our voting system is not fit for modern politics. We need a fair electoral system that represents the broad spectrum of beliefs in British politics, not one which tries to entrench the long-gone two-party system. Do you agree? Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

The electoral system is broken at all levels When parties win huge majorities on a fraction of the vote, all voters lose. Councils benefit from a variety of voices where scrutiny is strong and decision-making is truly representative Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

0126

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

We believe that all voting should be positive: for candidates we want, not simply the 'next best option'. Under a fair voting system voters will no longer have to compromise on their beliefs for the sake of tactics. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

When 34% of the vote leads to a 63% majority, it is no longer a political question - it is about fairness. A broken system makes for a broken government - one that makes decisions that do not represent the public. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Who doesn't want fair votes?! Calls for change are coming from all over, not just the Lib Dems. With Andy Burnham now PM, even Labour (who won a huge majority thanks to FPTP) finally seem ready to cancel our outdated system Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

When politics lacks collaboration and accountability, everyone loses. At a local and national level, it is clear that good policies are only ever born from good politics - if we want change, we have to change the system. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 21/07/2026

Today, Burnham became our 7th PM in 10 years. He says he wants to fix politics. We believe if we are going to fix politics we have to fix the engine that drives it: the voting system. What do you think is needed? Take our survey: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

Fair votes are long overdue. Around the world, more proportional electoral systems are used to positive effect. In Europe, for example, proportional systems often result in lower average polarisation. Is it time for change? Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 19/07/2026

If First Past the Post leaves so many votes 'wasted', can we really say that politics is fair for everyone? Rebuilding political trust might only be possible if we rethink the system itself. Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Even those who have benefitted from our electoral system can see that it is unfair. Democracy relies on difference, not 100% majorities. It is clear that when our votes don't count, nobody 'wins'. Tell us what you think in our survey: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

086

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 17/07/2026

Democracy is a system where everyone's voice should an impact. but is this really the care when when governments win huge majorities with only 34% of the votes? We believe that First Past the Post undermines democracy - do you? Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

1187

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 16/07/2026

For a long time, our electoral system has incentivised division & short termism. It is time for change. We believe proportional representation will open the door for more collaboration politics needs - do you agree? Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

People have often argued First Past the Post creates stable governments. Is that how we’d describe the last decade of British politics? Stable? Really? We think its time for change and the old arguments have run out of road - but tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

0139

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

With only 33% of the vote Labour were never going to have majority support for big changes - and its likely to be even worse next time. Can we can fix the big challenges in this country if no government can get majority support? Tell us what you think: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

043

Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform (LDER) @libdems4er.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

First Past the Post with 5 or more parties running - means each party only has to appeal to a small % of the population. Do you think thats ok? Yes? no? Do you think politicians should try and reach out across communities? Take our short survey today: digitallibdems.typeform.com/fix-politics

"But PR will let the extremists win" No. PR means all views will be represented fairly. Including minorities, and yes people with views that we vehemently disagree with. But it is First Past the Post which can hand a party absolute power on a small minority of the vote.

Jokes about being supreme leader of Richmond aside: Gareth knows first hand how important genuine scrutiny is. How important it is for a diversity of views to be heard in our councils - and in Parliament Fairer systems bring greater balance to debate - they make sure more voices are heard. 1/2🧵

London Assembly has passed a Lib Dem motion calling for fair votes with cross party support from Greens, Labour and Conservatives. Gareth Roberts moved the motion, while noting the absurdity of his position as leader of Richmond council, with 100% Lib Dem Councillors but only 51% of the vote
