Letters: Proportional representation is about people not politics

Dear editor

We’re getting back to business as usual but there are some things crying out for change. Our new Prime Minister wasn’t appointed by voters and doesn’t enjoy the support of a majority of British people.

Labour’s annual conference almost adopted proportional representation as party policy last year. I hope local Labour members and activists plan to make sure it gets passed at their conference next week.

This isn’t just a party rule change. This is about the people who are being failed right now. This is about electing a government that actually matches what people vote for, and one that helps people in need. This is about people, not politics.

Yours,
H Glanville
