National Commission on electoral reform: why fixing politics is essential to Labour's renewal agenda

As I’ve said many times before on Ugly Politix, the outcome of the 2024 general election exposed the stark inadequacies of the First Past the Post system, the engine that drives our politics. Labour won 63 per cent of seats with just 33.7 per cent of the vote, Reform UK won 0.8 per cent of seats (just 5 MPs) with 14 per cent of the vote, and the Green Party won 0.6 per cent of seats (4 MPs) with 6.7 per cent of the vote. That’s not just demonstr…Read Article

Photo by Mike Newbry on Unsplash I launched Reform Watch because I’ve seen what happens when movements like Reform UK are allowed to expand without challenge. Across Europe and beyond [most notably in the USA], we’ve witnessed populist parties rise by distorting the truth, attacking democratic safeguards, and presenting themselves as the sole voice of “ordinary people”. What begins as anti-establishment posturing often ends in the erosion of the…Kent, England · Kent Read Article

We need to talk about Reform UK and MAGA...

Cyanobacteria Wikimedia Commons This image was chosen specifically as a result of requests to stop showing Farage’s face. Not enough people are linking Reform & MAGA. It’s time to correct that by talking about Nigel Farage, MAGA money, and a US PR firm with direct ties to Bannon. It’s not patriotism and pints. it’s a shared plan and international far-right coordination. Grab a cup of tea and strap in… Farage received logistical, media and travel…Reform UK · United Kingdom Read Article
