Proportional Representation
Initiate an overhaul of our first past the post voting system to one that is proportionally representative of voters' choices and provides a democratically elected lower house
Why is this important?
Our political system no longer revolves around two parties. The first past the post system cannot work when we have a multi-party system. To give an example the SNP won 1.5 million votes and gained 56 seats; UKIP won 3 million votes and gained one seat.
The current voting system is skewed and undemocratic.
