Proud that @pcs_union was the first trade union to agree a pro-electoral reform policy. Proud of all the trade unionists that came together in @Politics4Many to win this moment. Much still to do, but this is a huge milestone on the journey
PCS General Secretary Fran Heathcote has given her response to PM Andy Burnham's plans for a new national commission on electoral reform #Labour2026
ALT The graphic comprises a photograph of PCS General Secretary Fran Heathcote alongside the text: Electoral reform "PCS has long supported electoral reform, it has been national policy for a number of years, so hearing the PM today confirm that he will establish a national commission is a positive step, our democracy needs to be reflective of our voting intentions, PR will ensure that is the case."

“Andy Burnham is facing new pressure to act over electoral reform, with nearly 100 of his MPs backing a commission to decide on a route to replace the first-past-the-post voting system.”

“We think it's the right time now for the Government to commit to a National Commission to look at electoral reform... to make sure that people feel like their vote counts and don't feel disenfranchised by the political system”

Changing Westminster’s voting system shouldn't be left to the politicians. An independent commission could get the public and experts together in one room to examine the evidence and build consensus for reform. Add your name today: petition.parliament.uk/petit…
The slave trade is a part of our history that must be condemned and never forgotten.
This weekend, we stand in solidarity with @unitetheunion who are calling for a national day of remembrance.

Trade unionists across the UK are supporting our campaign to make the votes of all working people count. This month has seen further strides as Andy Burnham, the first prime minister to support electoral reform, settles into Downing Street. #TimeForPR politicsforthemany.co.uk/and…
The British Social Attitudes survey from @NatCen shows a majority of the population support a change to Westminster’s broken voting system. The way the British public is represented in Westminster looks nothing like how people actually voted. #TimeForPR

Andy Burnham supports electoral reform, but how does this fit his broader agenda? Clues may lie in 'Head North', his 2024 book with Steve Rotherham. Politics for the Many’s Vice-Chair John Doolan reviews it for us. #TimeForPR politicsforthemany.co.uk/wha…

Great speech from Andy on the "need to change politics"!
🤝 Proportional Representation is key to “reaching across Parliament to find common ground" and mending Westminster’s broken culture.
