Democracy explores the deep reforms the UK’s creaking political institutions urgently need — and what a genuinely democratic Britain might look like. This section brings together analysis and argument on electoral reform, the case for proportional representation, abolishing the Lords, and broader questions about how ordinary people can have real power over the decisions that shape their lives — including in the workplace and the economy.
Do you have ideas about democratic reform or how Green politics could help reshape Britain’s institutions? We welcome contributions from academics, activists, policymakers, and anyone thinking seriously about the future of democracy in the UK. If so, go to the Write For Us section of the website for details on how to contribute.
