Trump's state visit is a reminder of how quickly democracy can begin to unravel.

Without proper safeguards, UK democracy is no less vulnerable to subversion.

Great to welcome Rachel Blake MP to discuss how to create a #ResilientDemocracy alongside @radixuk.bsky.social & @compinpolitics.bsky.social

Words aren't enough. Will you end the exports?

We recently added our name to a letter urging the government to introduce Automatic Voter Registration (AVR). This simple change would ensure that everyone who is eligible is automatically added to the electoral roll when they interact with public services.
