Make Votes Matter John Penrose Minister for Constitutional Reform Make Votes Matter www.makevotesmatter.org.uk Contact: Joe Sousek John Penrose E: [email protected] Minister for Constitutional Reform T: 07402 965566 House of Commons London SW1A 0AA Copied to: David Cameron Prime Minister 20 June 2016 Dear Mr Penrose, On 2nd March 2016, we wrote to you setting out critical failures of the electoral system used for General Elections and asking you to meet with us. The failures are these: 1. That First Past the Post (FPTP) currently suppresses the democratic right to representation of one quarter of all UK voters (24.4% of voters voted for either the Green Party, the Liberal Democrats, or UKIP, who now share a negligible 1.5% of seats between them) ­ effectively ​ ​ excluding the voices of more than seven million voters not only from government, but from holding government to account. 2. That it makes votes grossly unequal in value. One party needed just over 23,000 votes to win a single seat last year while another needed almost four million. This means that votes cast by some people had more than one hundred and sixty eight times greater value than votes cast by others. 3. That it distorts the electorate’s express wishes. 63% of people who voted rejected the present government’s manifesto, yet it now has a majority of parliamentary seats and the power to impose whatever policies it wishes. It is astonishing that you did not acknowledge any of these points in your reply. You are the Minister responsible for electoral policy and democratic engagement. Facts have been put before you suggesting (for instance) that the present voting system suppresses the right to parliamentary representation of one in four of all UK voters. If this claim is true it means the UK is failing dramatically in this crucial area ­ an area for which you are personally responsible. If half a million people petitioned the Health Secretary alleging that one quarter of the UK population were being prevented from accessing healthcare services, it is clear that the Health Secretary would need to respond either by refuting that allegation or by taking urgent action to remedy it. It could not simply be ignored ­ because if it were true it would constitute an indefensible failure of health policy. Yet this is precisely the condition of democracy in the UK ­ with one quarter of all UK voters represented by 1.5% of MPs ­ and unfortunately you have failed to rebut, accept or even acknowledge this fact. Therefore please respond to the following points substantively: 1. We claim that FPTP suppresses the democratic right to representation of one quarter of all UK voters (24.4% of voters voted for either the Green Party, the Liberal Democrats, or UKIP, who now share a negligible 1.5% of seats between them) ­ effectively excluding the voices of more ​ ​ than seven million voters not only from government, but from holding government to account. a) Do you deny this? b) If so, on what basis? c) If not, what are you ­ as the Minister responsible for electoral policy ­ doing to remedy it? 2. We claim that the present electoral system makes different people’s votes grossly unequal in value. One party needed just over 23,000 votes to win a single seat last year while another needed almost four million. This means that votes cast by some people had more than one hundred and sixty eight times greater value than votes cast by others. a) Do you deny this? b) If so, on what basis? c) If not, what are you ­ as the Minister responsible for electoral policy ­ doing to remedy it? 3. We claim that the present electoral system distorts the electorate’s express wishes. 63% of people who voted rejected the present government’s manifesto, yet it now has a majority of parliamentary seats and the power to impose whatever policies it wishes. a) Do you deny this? b) If so, on what basis? c) If not, what are you ­ as the Minister responsible for electoral policy ­ doing to remedy it? We would ask that you kindly focus your response to this letter on the three substantive issues above. However, for completeness, we note the argument put forward in your previous letter: “...there had been a referendum on changing the voting system from First Past the Post which the electorate clearly rejected. The proposal of holding a further referendum, on an even bigger change to our electoral system than AV, would therefore be hard to justify” But: ● We did not ask you for a further referendum ­ we asked you to meet with representatives of the movement for a fair democracy to discuss how we may, together, find a way forward. ● Notwithstanding this, it clearly does not follow that the rejection of the Alternative Vote by referendum is evidence that electorate wants FPTP or that the electorate does not want PR. AV is not PR; the electorate have never been offered PR. ● Indeed, the fact that turnout for the referendum was just 42.2% is compelling evidence that few people wanted either of the two disproportionate systems that were offered. ● On the other hand, literally all available evidence1 strongly suggests that PR has overwhelming ​ ​ support. Going back as far as 1970, every single opinion poll on the issue we are aware of has found PR to have greater support than FPTP. ● Regardless of all of the preceding points, our democracy has significantly deteriorated since 2011 ­ with more votes wasted and more voters excluded from representation than ever before following the most disproportionate election in British history. Taken alone this justifies an urgent review of our democratic system. We ask you again to meet with us and we hope to understand your view of these serious matters soon.

    Commissioner Jonathan Hill 32 Smith Square, London SW1P 3EU Dear Commissioner Hill, We are writing this open letter to you as NGOs, civil society organisations, campaigners and EU citizens to call on you to amend the proposed rules for addressing excessive price speculation on food and other commodities in financial markets. When the EU legislation - Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II (MiFID II) – was agreed in January 2014, the European Commission claimed that it would be “curbing speculation on commodities and the disastrous impacts it can have on the world's poorest populations.” 1 However, we are alarmed that the proposed rules for implementation 2 will severely weaken the effectiveness of the legislation and will not tackle excessive speculation on food and other commodities. High and volatile food prices have had a devastating impact in poor and food dependent countries, causing increased hunger, poverty and instability. They also affect agricultural producers as well as consumers in the EU and around the world. Strict limits need to be set consistently throughout the EU on the amount that companies and persons can bet on commodity prices in order to curb harmful speculation. However, the proposals to implement MiFID II that you are considering will allow weak and ineffective position limit systems in member states. They will also leave the EU unable to deliver on its commitments by the G20 leaders, G20 Finance Ministers and G20 Agriculture Ministers. The EU agreed to improve the regulation of financial commodity markets to address excessive price volatility 3 as an important step to reduce poverty, achieve food security, budget stability and strong growth that is both sustainable and inclusive 4 including setting up a robust position limits system.

    Make Votes Matter www.makevotesmatter.org.uk Contact: Joe Sousek Chris Skidmore MP E: [email protected] Minister for the Constitution T: 07402 965566 Cabinet Office 70 Whitehall London SW1A 2AS Copied to: Theresa May Prime Minister 10th October 2016 If our Constitution is to continue “evolving and adapting in line with people’s expectations and needs” the case for Proportional Representation must be given full and fair consideration Dear Mr Skidmore, Congratulations on your appointment as Minister for the Constitution. Now more than ever, stewardship of the UK’s constitution and democratic processes is a crucial role. We therefore welcome your commitment to “see our democracy grow in strength and that everyone can have their ​ voice heard”1, and we wish you every success in the job. ​ It is difficult, however, to see how our democracy can grow in strength or how everyone can have their voice heard without addressing the failures of the UK’s primary democratic process: the election of MPs to the House of Commons through our First Past the Post (FPTP) electoral system. In May 2015, one quarter (24.4%) of votes went to the candidates and manifestos of the Green Party, the Liberal Democrats or UK Independence Party. But FPTP delivered a parliament in which these parties share ten seats (1.5% of 650 Commons seats). This cannot be said to be a parliament in which ​ ​ “everyone can have their voice heard”. On the contrary, it is a parliament from which the voices of 7.5 million voters are all but excluded. If our democracy is to grow in strength, it is incumbent upon us to ensure that every vote carries equal weight.
