Changing the UK voting system from the FPTP (First Past The Post) to MMP (Mix Member Proportional); a fairer and more democratic voting system for the UK.

Under MMP voting system no matter if you are in Newcastle or Southampton, your vote counts equally along with everyone else’s. With MMP everyone’s party votes count equally to determine the number of seats each political party gets in Parliament.

Under MMP the parliaments will become more representative of British people. It encourages all political parties to put a range of candidates on their party lists.

MMP Parliament will be made up of both local and List MPs.
