Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Rejected petition All Government & Local Elections to be decided by Proportional representation.

The current electoral systems leave a significant section of the populations views and desires unrepresented in Government & local elections.
It would lead to better represented and balanced debates in parliament and Town Halls with a greater spread of community viewpoints and representations.

More details

We have seen so much distrust and division in politics recently showing the frustration of both politicians and public . We need to show a will to allow all sectors of the community to be represented .
