No party should have a majority, let alone a massive majority, on 34% of the vote. Nearly two thirds of voters didn’t vote Labour but our system has given them total power We need proportional representation right now. Join @TheGreenParty to fight for it

The only thing that should really be trending right now is proportional representation. The Labour membership voted for it. Labour are going to be in Government.

Nigel Farage won thanks to billionaire owned media. Jeremy Corbyn and 4 Green MPs won thanks to OUR movement - which runs on people’s passion, commitment and solidarity alone. No wonder they’re so scared of us 😘

This is not the election for protest votes. For the first time, we could demote the Tories to third. Winning fewer seats than the LibDems would wipe them out as a political force. Polls suggest this is within reach, but we need tactical voting to get us over the line. 1/12

Everyone knows Labour are going to win the election, but if you’re feeling like there’s no point in voting as the outcome is a foregone conclusion, I’d like to draw your attention to something really radical that is on offer tomorrow: 1/8

Caroline Lucas: “It’s pretty obvious we’re going to get a Labour government, but my worry is that it will be so lacking in hope and vision that it will be a one-term government. Have the confidence to vote Green – because the need for progressive voices couldn’t be greater.”

DDOs in @churchofengland should consider whether God is truly calling a person to serve in a church that is open to women as priests & bishops if the person cant fully accept that ministry personally. It's time to stop ordaining ppl who dont accept women as priests/church leaders

We know it, you know it, and now an @instituteforgov report has confirmed it; our broken voting system means that millions of people’s votes have “little to no impact on the outcome” of an election. Everyone deserves a vote that counts. https://t.co/QEdFedEnLN

Political distrust has often "been the first step in a sequence of autocratisation, resulting in the breakdown of democracy itself" the report notes.
