Big news from Labour Conference: the PM has announced the government's plan to scrap first past the post.

Seats that match votes would change British politics for good, but only if it happens. I've added my name. Join me?

💥BREAKING: Andy Burnham announces a National Commission on Electoral Reform.

This is a historic moment. The era of First Past the Post is coming to an end.

It's time to transform politics and make all votes count. It's time for Proportional Representation.
