MP after MP got up to highlight the damage this outdated voting system does to our democracy.
Whether we're electing Mayors, councillors or MPs, we need a system where every vote counts.

We agree: if Labour says that it will listen to voters and deliver change, it must listen to the growing numbers of people demanding a fair voting system.
Democracy is a doorstep demand.
