William Relton of Brent Green Party on why we need a change of voting system
Brent Green Party activists were outside Willesden Green Station today building support for the cross-party and non-party Makes Votes Matter campaign. Events were taking place across the country by groups calling for proportional representation to produce a fairer voting system and to end voter apathy.
At a time of national crisis it is dangerous that only a minority of people vote and disaffection from politicians and democracy is rife.
