Electoral reform is more than a constitutional fix. It’s about rewiring how power is felt and practiced across the country, with potential implications for local economies, communities and everyday life. Done well, it could help lay the foundations for a fairer, more inclusive and prosperous state.

Moving beyond familiar debates about electoral reform, this panel will explore what changing the way we elect representatives could mean for Britain’s broader political economy – and how these wider considerations shape the case for electoral reform itself.


Speakers:

  • Alex Sobel MP – Member of Parliament for Leeds Central and Headingley; Chair, Fair Elections APPG
  • Rachel Blake MP – Member of Parliament for Cities of London and Westminster
  • Dr Nick Garland – Editor of Progressive Review, IPPR
  • Polly Toynbee – Columnist, The Guardian
