One of the best things about the tactical voting advice of sprintforpr.uk
is whether you want a #HungParliament or #ToriesInto3rd (it gives both) - it also gives 100 seats where it's absolutely cast-iron 100% safe to #VoteGreen ideologically. Important to prepare for 2029. #Vote4PR #UKPol #UKPolitics #FBPPR #ProportionalRepresenttion #Green

From "GetPRDone" on the dark side ...
Labour’s manifesto commitment to fight 2029 under the rigged and outdated #FPTP voting system, potentially enabling a 35% Farage majority government, seems to be getting surprisingly little coverage in the mainstream media.

The UK is one of only two countries in Europe with a first-past-the-post electoral system.

That makes us like Belarus, but with more pageantry.

There is hope!

Labour recognises Westminster’s voting system is driving ‘distrust’, in potential pivotal moment for #ProportionalRepresentation fight

FPTP is flawed & deeply damaging to our democracy

'While "the Government" is a Thing Political Parties Fight to Own and Control, Real Government Will Remain a Dream'

Governments are run by political parties and for political interests – but they shouldn’t be

Hello to the #fediverse !

On Twitter I had many #FBPE & #FBPPR mutuals, and I'm missing that lively community.

Many such people are now #TwitterRefugees

I will follow back accounts on Mastodon that would like to #RejoinEU or would like #ProportionalRepresentaton

Just voted - but had to vote tactically to #gtto

£5.6 million to promote voter ID website that wasn’t live yet

Despite these millions, electoral administrators warn that it still isn’t enough – based on 2019’s turnout it would be just 17p per voter. Councils are receiving no extra money specifically to warn people about the new rules ...

If you want a #GeneralElectionNow resulting in a #Labour govt, want #ElectoralReform, including #AbolishTheHouseofLords,
support workers right to strike, want to protect the
#NHS, and want a path to #RejoinEU

The country and it's long-suffering citizens will continue to sink till everyone wishes to rejoin.
Climbing aboard a sinking vessel or melting iceberg will cease to offer hope, even to the dim. Crowded lifeboats to the EU on their Terms - Euro, Schengen etc. is inevitable IMHO.

Changing Prime Minister's without a General Election is NOT Democratic.

Please sign, if you agree.

Can we, please, have a law to address Irresponsible Reporting in the media, with Complaints by, say, 1,000 or more, handled by an independent Citizens Assembly and, when upheld, redress to include a requirement that:
Retractions be the same:
° Size
° Prominance
° Repeated as often as original lie

That would be a step forward for the country.

#FollowBackFriday
I don't understand why people choose not to follow back - I FOLLOW anyone I see as PRO EUROPEAN with common aims like #GTTO #GeneralElectionNow #RejoinEU
or advertise themselves as belonging to follow back movements such as #FBPE #FBPEGlobal #FBPA #FBPPR
I also don't limit it just to these very important groups as I am happy to FOLLOW BACK everybody EXCLUDING BREXITEERS /TORIES and the 'usual suspects' from Twitter - who fortunately don't seem to have found Mastodon..YET!

Conservative Party Propped Up by Financiers, Property Developers and #FossilFuel Interests

Bankers have contributed a third of the party’s income over recent months, amid plans to remove the cap on their bonuses

First Post for anyone who might be interested and to plant my flag 🚩
For 47 years we were one of the three main players in the EU, along with Germany & France.
Nothing, or little, happened without our say so, or even, our instigation.
We've gone from being 'top dog' to 'also ran'.
There's no denying it.
Where we had influence over 400 million, we now have none!
Your welcome 🙂
