SUMMARY:UKICE Lunch Hour: Changing party politics in the UK - online
DESCRIPTION:British politics has become both increasingly volatile and more fragmented. Parties are rising and falling with greater speed and there are more candidates for more parties than ever before. \nThe 2024 general election was the first ever five-plus party competition and magnified the influence of Britain’s first past the post electoral system. Labour won a huge majority on just over a third of the vote and huge numbers of votes were cast for parties that now have little representation. \nBut what are the consequences of the changes to the party landscape in the UK? How will the parties respond to the challenges that May’s local elections will pose? And in this new landscape\, is the UK’s electoral system fit for purpose? \nTo discuss all this and more\, UK in a Changing Europe and the APPG for Fair Elections have assembled a panel of both politicians with skin in the game and expert pollsters. Join us online as we discuss political fragmentation in the UK and what it means for our politics. \nSpeakers \n\nCatherine Barnard (chair)\, UK in a Changing Europe\nLisa Smart MP\, Liberal Democrat and Vice-Chair of the APPG for Fair Elections\nSean Woodcock MP\, Labour\nRob Ford\, University of Manchester\n\nYou can sign up via Eventbrite here.
