The Take Back Parliament protest in London today demanded “Fair Votes Now” as around 1,000 people marched from Parliament Square to the scene of the Liberal Democrat federal executive committee meeting in Smith Square.
Over 30,000 people have now signed the online petition which says:
“This Parliament does not represent us. We demand fair votes now. There must never again be an election under this broken system.”
Last night, 38 Degrees, the people pwered campaigning movement, coordinated 150,000 emails to Lib Dem MPs and grandees in four hours demanding “no PR, no deal”.
Watch my video of the protest (I’m no film editor so apologies for the very rough cut):

Nick Clegg actually came out & spoke to us, I know he’ll do what’s right & fair for the voters of this country 🙂

The problem is that Brown can’t offer a referendum on PR and Cameron won’t (Brown can offer a bill on it but doesn’t have the votes to get it onto the statute book)
