An unfair election - we need PR!

Our broken ‘first past the post’ system has failed to deliver the Parliament people dared to hope for.

The breakdown:
Tories 36% of vote, 47% of the seats.
Labour 29%of vote, 40 % of the seats.
Lib Dem; 23% of vote, 9% of the seats.
Greens – 8.7% of the vote when it’s PR like in the Euro elections, only 1% in the general election 2010, and only one MP out of 650!

for a great article about the need to campaign now for proportional representation, by George Monbiot. Now is the time!


See http://www.power2010.org.uk/page/s/powerpledge and sign the petition for a fair voting system!

You can also print out a window poster to replace the green, red, or yellow one you're about to put in the bin.

See http://fightpastthepost.co.uk/#posters for a downloadable poster demanding voting reform.

If you want a slightly different 'editable' version just copy and paste the following and change the words and typeface as you wish:-

DEMAND ELECTORAL REFORM NOW

WE WANT PROPORTIONAL REPRESENTATION – DEMOCRACY
NOT A HORSE RACE!
