ERS Live: Two Decades of Proportional Representation

The 6 May 2021 was a milestone for the campaign for fairer votes in Britain.
The date marked the sixth set of elections to take place for each of Great Britain’s devolved elected institutions - the Scottish Parliament, Welsh Senedd and London Assembly, and two decades of proportional representation (PR) being used for elections in Britain.
During this time, PR has become a fact of life for millions of voters.
Our new report Here to Stay: Two Decades of Proportional Representation in Britain celebrates two-decades of proportional representation in Britain - showing the benefits of PR over Westminster’s broken First Past the Post electoral system.
On 10th August we hosted an ERS members' talk on the new report with contributions from the author, Ian Simpson, ERS Chief Executive Darren Hughes and ERS Cymru Director Jess Blair
