The Government has released its plans for democratic reforms in the UK. Yay!

The policy paper, titled "Restoring trust in our democracy: Our strategy for modern and secure elections", includes the much awaited extension of the franchise to 16 & 17 year olds as well as other important reforms such as automatic voter registration.

But it has no proposals for the extension of the right to vote to migrant residents. How can this policy paper truly aim to "modernise" democracy when it will still leave millions of residents unenfranchised?

Over 1.2 million residents in the UK have no right to vote and all and over 4.4 million residents cannot vote in parliamentary elections.

Sign this petition now and demand that the Government implement residence-based voting rights for a fairer and more modern democracy that listens to us all!
