STILL HAVEN'T SIGNED UP FOR THE LOBBY?
There's still time to register for the Sort the System lobby!
We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to sort the system. Proportional Representation is now Labour Party policy, voted on by members at Labour's Autumn Conference last year. But there's still some way to go to make sure that the Labour leadership do follow through at the next General Election.
We need to show them, and other politicians from all parties, that there is public demand for change.
Make your voice heard and join us on 24th May by registering here: https://sortthesystem.uk/
IS THIS YOUR FIRST PARLIAMENTARY LOBBY?
Don't worry! There will be plenty of people on hand to show you the ropes.
You can also join a pre-lobby briefing on how to lobby your MP: Friday 19th May at 6:30pm
Sign up for the briefing here.
CAN YOU HELP US TO CAPTURE THE DAY?
As Liberal Democrats, we continue to be fully committed to changing our voting system for Westinster.
At Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform we strive to make our Party's position as visible as possible. We'd like to hire a professional photographer to capture Liberal Democrats in action during the lobby.
Can you help us meet our £150 fundraising target to make this possible?
Every little helps! Please donate what you can here.
We will of course make all photos available after the event.
CONGRATULATIONS!
With over 400 Councillor gains in this month's elections, the party had a fantastic night, putting us on course for more MPs and a bigger say over what happens after the next General Election.
Among all those gains, huge congratulations to Liberal Democrats for Electoral Reform Executive Member Sally Yalden for her election to Test Valley Borough Council! It's the first time that there has ever been a Lib Dem elected in Ampfield and Braishfield ward. Great work Sally!
