Quietly introduced passport rule changes left British dual nationals locked out of the UK. Their own country. At the last election, only half of overseas postal ballots made it back in time to be counted. So they can’t vote for a government that might fix it either Help our campaign to fix this👇

UK pensioner: £9,615 a year. British pensioner in Australia: £4,381. Frozen. They could vote in a Government that promises to fix it. Except at the last election, only 6% of postal ballots from Australia got back in time to be counted. You can't fix what you can't vote on. We need your help, see👇

One voter in France received their postal vote the day AFTER the election. Only 48% of overseas postal ballots were returned in time at the last General Election. Half our postal votes in the bin. The Government's response? Start distributing ballots 3 days earlier. That's no fix. That's a shrug.

"People must trust that their voting voice matters". Well said, @mp4stratford.bsky.social ! Thank you for raising in parliament issues affecting overseas voting. The new elections act is a chance to fix it with: 📮 Better postal ballots 🌍 Overseas constituencies 🏢 Using embassies and consulates

The voices of thousands of overseas voters weren't heard due to postal delays at the last General Election. Yet the government has proposed a new law with no improvements for Brits abroad: ❌ No postal vote improvements ❌ No dedicated overseas representation ❌ No automatic voter registration

🚨 URGENT INFORMATION FOR BRITISH DUAL CITIZENS TRAVELLING TO THE UK 🚨 From February 25th, dual citizens must use a UK passport or have a costly certificate to enter. You may otherwise be denied boarding or face delays as the automatic system may not recognise your rights.

Many Canadians living abroad already have their postal ballots, 4 weeks ahead of the election. That efficiency is needed for UK elections. Only 50% of postal ballots from abroad were counted at last year's election. We need better. Good luck @mark-carney.bsky.social and the Liberal Party!

#LibDemConf passes a motion calling for proportional representation, including our amendment to improve overseas voting. At the election, overseas voters from as close as Belgium couldn't return postal ballots in time to be counted. Let's stop that fiasco from happening again.

Conservatives have plunged the NHS into crisis. If you're a Brit abroad, you may worry about the care your parents will get in their later years, or have friends & family working in care – underpaid and under-supported. We’ll get the NHS back on its feet, and improve it.
