Voters call for electoral change as Reform's popularity surges
The majority of voters want electoral reform to allow smaller political parties to have more MPs, new research has found. A British Social Attitudes survey found that 60 per cent of adults think the system should be changed to allow smaller parties to get their 'fair share' of MPs. It comes as Reform UK continues to surge in popularity, with recent polls putting Nigel Farage's party ahead of the Conservatives and Labour. More than four million votes were cast for Reform at the general election, but it returned only five MPs. The Liberal Democrats returned 71 with just 3.5 million votes. Researchers at the National Centre for Social Research, which has conducted the annual poll since 1983, said it showed 'the political landscape is poised for potential transformation'. Support for electoral reform is at an all-time high, according to the survey, with a majority of supporters for all political parties backing it. Just 36 per cent said they felt the status quo of the first past the post system should be maintained to 'produce effective government'. Analysis suggested that last year's general election result was the most distorted in history. Labour won nearly two-thirds of the seats in the Commons last July with just over a third of the popular vote. Mr Farage declared in the aftermath of the general election that he would abolish the current system. The Clacton MP claimed that Reform would have won 100 seats under proportional representation. The party's popularity since then has surged, with local elections in May returning hundreds of Reform councillors as it seized control of eight authorities from the Conservatives. Reform was created in November 2018 as the Brexit Party, rebranding itself as Reform UK in 2021. It is the newest political party in Parliament by decades. Mr Farage has an unlikely political ally on the issue in Sir Ed Davey, the leader of the Liberal Democrats, who has for years campaigned for electoral reform. Alex Scholes, the research director at the National Centre for Social Research, said: 'The 2024 election highlighted significant challenges to Britain's traditional two-party system and the result has yet to restore public trust and confidence. 'With voter trust at an all-time low and a growing support for electoral reform, the political landscape is poised for potential transformation.' More than half of respondents also said they would prefer a coalition government over a single party in power – a record high. Earlier this year, Lord Houchen, the Conservative Tees Valley mayor, said that if Tory and Reform MPs overall 'create a significant majority' at the next election, then 'obviously there's going to be a conversation to form a coalition or some sort of pact'. He told the BBC: 'I'm talking about the practicalities of keeping Labour out of government.' Both Kemi Badenoch, the Conservative leader, and Mr Farage have sought to pour cold water on the idea of any kind of formal working relationship between the two parties.

Survey ‘suggests political system poised for potential transformation'
Erosion of the traditional two-party dominance of British politics and a continuing decline in voter trust in the system suggests the political landscape is 'poised for potential transformation', according to researchers. The findings of a new survey also show there is a clear appetite for electoral reform, with a record number backing changes to allow smaller political parties 'to get a fairer share of MPs', the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen) said. NatCen, which published the latest chapter of the British Social Attitudes (BSA) report on Wednesday, said that before the recent rise in the popularity of Reform UK, significant questions about the future of two-party politics were raised by the outcome of the 2024 general election. The election did not improve low levels of trust and confidence in how the country is governed, researchers found, with a record low of 19% of the public saying the system needs little or no improvement before the election repeated in the latest survey. In addition, just 12% of those surveyed said they trust governments to put the country's interest before their party's interests 'just about always' or 'most of the time'. This is a smaller percentage than the previous record lowest level of 14% registered in 2023, while NatCen said high levels of dissatisfaction with the NHS, the economy and Brexit continue to undermine public trust and confidence. Meanwhile, amid diminishing class-based support for the two main parties, age and education are now viewed as more important factors. Labour failed to reconnect with its traditional working class base during the election campaign, continuing a trend that emerged in 2019, the survey suggests. Just 30% of those in what NatCen describes as 'semi-routine and routine occupations' voted Labour, compared with 42% of people in professional and managerial jobs. The survey showed age and education are now the 'principal dividing line in British politics', demonstrated by only 6% of 18 to 24-year-olds of those surveyed voting Conservative, compared with 36% of voters aged 65 or over. Only 5% of graduates voted for Reform UK, compared with 25% of those with less than one A-level. While a record 60% of those surveyed said the electoral system should be changed to allow smaller political parties to get their 'fair share' of MPs, just 36% said the status quo should be maintained 'to produce effective government'. For the first time a majority of supporters of all political parties said they backed electoral reform, with as much as 90% of Green supporters and 78% of Reform voters confirming this position. In another first, more than half of respondents said they would prefer a coalition government, compared with 41% who opted for a single party in power. Commenting on the findings, Alex Scholes, research director at NatCen, said: 'The 2024 election highlighted significant challenges to Britain's traditional two-party system and the result has yet to restore public trust and confidence. 'With voter trust at an all-time low and a growing support for electoral reform, the political landscape is poised for potential transformation. 'Whether this will lead to substantive changes in how the country is governed remains to be seen.' The survey also found a record 26% of participants said they are struggling to live on their current income, up from 16% before the pandemic. The proportion who said they are living comfortably has also fallen over the same period from 50% to a record low of 35%. With Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer facing a backlash from some Labour MPs over proposals to reform the welfare system which are expected to save up to £5 billion a year, support for more spending on disability benefits fell to a record low of 45%, down 22 points since 2017. Just over a quarter of respondents (29%) said it is too easy for people to claim and receive disability benefits, while the same proportion said it is too difficult. However, just 11% said spending on disability benefits should be cut. The survey also found 69% believe the economy is worse off as a result of leaving the European Union. Within the backdrop of Labour pledging a significant uplift in the delivery of new homes as a key element of its bid to boost economic growth, the proportion of people who support more homes in their local area has fallen from 57% in 2018 to 41% now. Meanwhile, a third are opposed, up from 23% in 2018. Sir John Curtice, senior research fellow at NatCen, said voters are aware of the challenges but not 'necessarily ready to back the various remedies that Labour have been offering to overcome the country's difficulties'. He added: 'They are not necessarily prepared to embrace a dash for more infrastructure building, including perhaps not least anything that appears in their own backyard. 'Tightening up on disability benefits is potentially controversial too, as the Government has already discovered. 'The political difficulty with these policies is there are potentially identifiable winners and losers, and it is often the losers who shout the loudest. 'Pursuing economic growth rather than tax rises as the route out of fiscal constraint will not necessarily be the easier path for Labour to tread.' The British Social Attitudes survey has been conducted annually since 1983. The latest survey consisted of 4,120 interviews with a 'representative, random sample' of adults in the UK and was conducted between September 16 and October 27 2024.

Papua New Guinea's electoral integrity under scrutiny ahead of 2027 polls
Papua New Guinea will hold its National General Election in 2027. Photo: Supplied A new report from Papua New Guinea's National Research Institute (NRI) has called for immediate reforms of electoral boundaries before the 2027 National General Election after identifying significant breaches of law. The central concerns are three glaring breaches of the Organic Law on Provincial and Local Level Government Elections (OLPLLGE): inaccurate provisional number of electorates, flawed determination of the size of electorates, and overlapping maps of some electorates. The NRI says the integrity of Papua New Guinea's electoral process is at stake as it specifically pointed to the 2021 electoral boundaries review. This review controversially used a provisional number of 96 electorates. This figure, the NRI argues, is a direct violation of the Organic Law on National and Local-level Government Elections (OLNLLGE), PNG's foundational electoral legislation. The OLNLLGE clearly mandates a minimum of 110 and a maximum of 120 electorates. The NRI asserts that this breach of a fundamental legal requirement significantly undermines the integrity of PNG's entire electoral system. "The current electoral boundaries and the review that was done in 2021 is outdated as population has changed over the last 13 years," NRI researcher and author of the report Wilson Kumne said. "The new electorates to be implemented in 2027 should consider the changes in the population of the electorates over the 13 years." The NRI report points to the fact that any change in the electoral boundaries hinges on data from 2024 National Census which is yet to be published. But looking at the data from 2021 is already an indication of the challenges Papua New Guinea faces as a country. PNG's population grew from approximately 7.3 million in 2011 to an estimated 11.8 million by 2021. Photo: Supplied PNG's population grew from approximately 7.3 million in 2011 to an estimated 11.8 million by 2021. This significant demographic shift, represents a more 62 per cent increase in a decade, means current boundaries are out of sync with present-day realities. Adding to the complexity are issues with the physical demarcation of electorates. The OLNLLGE strictly prohibits open electorate boundaries from cutting across provincial boundaries. Yet, the report highlights examples, some in very remote locations, where electoral boundaries straddle multiple provincial boundaries creating administrative difficulties. Delaying any work on this reform could result in another chaotic election in 2027.

Fairer elections and the threat of Reform UK
George Monbiot captures the betrayal and despair felt by millions of Labour voters who thought they were voting for change at the last general election (How we can smash Britain's two-party system for good at the next election, 27 May).Less than a year later they have found themselves with a government pursuing much the same cruel austerity policies as the Conservative one it replaced. And he's right that Keir Starmer's cynical descent into inflammatory Powellite rhetoric is a gift to Nigel Farage. Most voters want nothing to do with the politics of fear and division, but the UK's antiquated and unrepresentative electoral system fails to reflect the wishes of the progressive left and centre-left majority. A hung parliament is now a very real possibility after the next election. This would indeed be a huge opportunity to scrap the first-past-the-post system that has blighted British politics for so long. As two Green MPs who overturned massive majorities to win our seats, we know it's possible for progressives to win against all the odds – and to change the electoral system, we will have to. The Green party has long championed electoral reform. As candidates for the party's leadership, our aim is to be heading a much larger group of Green MPs in parliament, giving us the leverage and negotiating power to actually achieve such transformational Chowns MPGreen party, North HerefordshireAdrian Ramsay MPGreen party, Waveney Valley George Monbiot is right to challenge the shortcomings of our electoral system. However, all electoral systems are flawed and in a democracy no individual decides what sort of government gets elected afterwards. Across Europe, where proportional representation prevails, the traditional parties of power are being replaced – not by a rainbow coalition of progressives, but by the seemingly inexorable rise of the hard right. In Scotland, the SNP-Green coalition broke down. In the UK, when the Liberal Democrats held the balance of power, they sided with the Conservatives in inflicting ideological austerity. When we had a referendum between engagement with Europe or isolation, the majority voted for the latter. The failure of our mainstream parties is that they have lost the ability to engage with ordinary people. Politics is the difficult task of leading the agenda while responding to the hopes and fears of wider society and all the ambiguities and compromises that are needed to do so. The government's shift in language from restraint to support for those most in need might be the beginning of something better – we can but BrownIlkley, West Yorkshire George Monbiot is spot-on in his analysis of the dysfunctions of our electoral system. One glaring danger he doesn't mention, however, can be seen in the steep rise of the Reform UK vote. We used to hear as one of the justifications of the current system that it prevented extreme parties from gaining a significant representation. Never mind that this revealed an arrogantly undemocratic mindset, the evidence now is that the distortions of the system may precipitate precisely the opposite outcome. Given the fragmentation of votes, it is entirely possible that, with fewer than 30% of the ballot, Reform could achieve an absolute majority in parliament at the next general election. That undemocratic disaster, quite apart from the other democratic imperatives George identifies, should be ringing alarm bells for urgent SmithGlasgow Have an opinion on anything you've read in the Guardian today?
