🎉 Democracy wins! The government has scrapped ministers’ power to influence the Electoral Commission.

The Strategy and Policy Statement risked political interference - now it’s gone!

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
