Great to see figures from across the political spectrum join the calls for PR.

Our campaign is not about party politics. It's about building a democracy that works for all, regardless of how or where they vote.

Today's announcement marks the beginning of the end of First Past the Post.

To everyone who has contributed to our movement over the years: we can't thank you enough.

Now let's push PR over the finish line 💪💯

A message from our CEO Emma Harrison:

IT'S HAPPENING.

Let’s be clear: this moment wouldn’t be happening without the grassroots movement that has spent years making the case for change.

Thank you for being part of it.

It's brilliant to see so much support for Proportional Representation at Labour Conference! 💪

As Alex Sobel said: “we are closer now to this change than we have ever been in the history of this country."

We have a real opportunity to make history and transform British politics for generations to come. Let's seize it.
