Political Support
We have been working with politicians at the national and local level to bring fairer democratic participation to migrants in the UK. If you are an elected representative, support our work!
Local Authority Support
In order to push residence-based voting rights onto the political agenda, we have been working with local authorities across the UK to promote our campaign.
Councillors across the UK have put forward our motion for residence-based voting rights in their local authority lending their support for all their residents to have a democratic say in their home, the UK. Join them and call on the Government to implement a residence-based voting rights system.
