Manitobans please compete this important survey sponsored by the Association of Former Manitoba Members of the Legislative Assembly. The AFMMLA is convening a democracy initiative project. This could be a way to get a discussion going on a citizens' assembly on electoral

🔗 Read the report by the APPG for @FairElectionsUK online: https://t.co/5m4F6FvJFP Free But Not Fair: British elections and how to restore trust in politics 5/5

❗️The PM says restoring trust is a key priority 💔 Parliament knows FPTP is flawed & undermining this trust ❤️‍🩹 The public wants these flaws addressed before the next election 🚀 So, the government should begin by launching a National Commission to recommend a way forward 4/4

🪑 APPG Chair @alexsobel said: "Are we really comfortable with a situation where a party - even an extreme party - can win a thumping majority with, say, just three out of ten votes? Because if things continue, that’s where we’re heading." 3/5

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Former First Minister of Wales @MarkDrakeford said FPTP is: "...driving a wedge between politicians & the people they are supposed to represent. A National Commission would be an important first step to allow people to again have confidence in Britain’s political system" 2/5

💥 Fantastic to see the APPG for @FairElectionsUK calling for a 'National Commission for Electoral Reform' 🌹 We're proud to say that a majority of the group's more than 100 members are Labour MPs 💪 The Labour movement is firmly in favour of fair votes 🧵 1/5

This is the core issue: our system can hand full power to a party that most voters didn’t choose. That makes politics feel like damage control instead of representation. Appreciate @avilewis naming that clearly with @atRachelGilmore.

🎲 22% of the vote is no mandate 📊 First Past the Post cannot cope with multiparty politics 📢 We need a National Commission on Electoral Reform

What do #TraitorsUK and UK politics have in common? 👀 More than you might think... Democracy shouldn't be a game. Share if you agree 👇 #Traitors #TheTraitorsUK

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Thursday January 22, 2026 that Canada is at a moment in history where “our values must be fought for” as a country based on inclusion, while setting an example to the rest of the world at a time of “democratic decline.” Now is the moment in

Bravo!

"Most members of Congress will never face a competitive general election. They know it.... [Reps Perez and Golden] have introduced a resolution to establish a... committee [that] would study... multimember districts with #ProportionalRepresentation." https://t.co/8xunphvaYo

Great to have industry leaders on board!

No wonder we keep getting governments that most of the public want gone. "Only a fifth of the eligible electorate actually voted for the current majority government." Under First Past the Post, that's enough for a "landslide". @robfordmancs for @UKandEU 👇

Here election campaign manager Kory Teneycke admits to the importance of vote splits to Doug Ford becoming Ontario premier. True. Interviewer Steve Paikin nonetheless heaps praise on Teneycke for three successive majority governments. Those were false majority governments not

@AndrewCFollett Both parties will do this because we use a winner-take-all voting system with single-member districts to elect the US House. If Congress passes reforms like the Fair Representation Act (HR 4632), introducing a proportional voting system, votes earned will match seats won.

I'm here from the future...and it turns out this was a total lie. Virginia Democrats broke the State Constitution to gerrymander Virginia so that they get 91% of the House seats with just 51% of the vote!

“We consider that the electoral system no longer serves the interests of UK business in generating growth." Last week, @FinancialTimes published a letter from 20+ business leaders, calling for electoral reform. Read more 👉 https://t.co/TWLJDTKvyl

BC’s own Electoral Reform Committee recommended a Citizens’ Assembly. That is a serious democratic process that deserves action, not delay. If you want a voting system where results actually reflect voters, now is the moment to speak up.

If Mark Carney truly believes we need to protect Canada from foreign influence & demagogues he would be pushing for proportional representation. FPTP makes Canadian governance less cooperative, less diverse & less secure against foreign influence. @FairVoteCanada

Canadians are clear about the kind of partners they trust internationally. Countries that use proportional representation deliver stability, cooperation, and accountability. If we value those qualities abroad, we should expect them at home too.
