Trump's state visit is a reminder of how quickly democracy can begin to unravel.

Without proper safeguards, UK democracy is no less vulnerable to subversion.

Great to welcome Rachel Blake MP to discuss how to create a #ResilientDemocracy alongside @radixuk.bsky.social & @compinpolitics.bsky.social

Parliament may be in recess — but the slaughter in Gaza continues.

David Lammy, every day the UK delays suspending arms to Israel is another day of complicity in genocide.

Words aren't enough. Will you end the exports?

The government has promised to extend the vote to 16/17-year-olds but without AVR many young people won’t actually be able to have their say. It would also help renters, ethnic minority communities, disabled people and others who are disproportionately missing from the register.

We recently added our name to a letter urging the government to introduce Automatic Voter Registration (AVR). This simple change would ensure that everyone who is eligible is automatically added to the electoral roll when they interact with public services.
