Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform
Campaigning for fair and equal votes
The Liberal Democrat vision for our politics:
A truly fair democracy, where everyone’s rights are respected and individuals and communities are empowered.
As Liberal Democrats we believe that:
Everyone should have equal power in our democracy, and be able to hold all Members of Parliament properly to account.
Our 2024-2025 goal
Win a proportional voting system for Westminster and for English local authority elections during the 2024-29 parliamentary term; and at the latest in the first King's Speech after the next General Election.
Our 2024-2025 plan
1. Make ‘proportional representation’ relevant to voters and central to overcoming the twin challenges of societal alienation and distrust of politics.
2. Maintain close cooperation with party leadership, and our parliamentary party, to use our parliamentary platform to bring about change.
3. Maximise the number of party members and supporters campaigning for reform.
4. Play a leading role in galvanising cross-party and non-party collaboration in order to achieve fair, equal votes.
5. Actively support regional/nations steps towards PR, such as in Wales, where there is potential for the adoption of STV for local elections.
