Last call for Power 2010

If you have not already done so, you have until midnight on Thursday 5th November to submit your idea for democratic and political reforms to Power2010.

Ideas submitted so far include: An English Parliament, Compulsory Voting, Fixed Term Parliaments, Scrap the Database State and ID Cards, A Citizens Convention on the Voting System, Abolish the Party Whips and Return to Balanced Politics and More Power to Regional Government

To inform Power2010 of your preferred reform please submit your via the Power2010 website. If you don't ask, you don't get.

The Timeline

1. The public and organisations submit their ideas for fixing politics via the website by Thursday 5 November

2. Power2010 will bring together citizens from across the UK to decide the shortlist of reforms to go to the public vote

3. On November 18th – the day of the Queen’s Speech – public voting begins.

4. The voting ends at midnight on 31st January. The five top reforms voted by the public are announced in February 2010 – creating the Power2010 Pledge

5. In the months to the General Election every candidate is pressed to back the Power2010 Pledge at hustings, via email, letters and the media.

On the Record

If the people are sovereign then Parliament still has an important role but it’s not an absolutist role.

English Constitutional Convention, 24 October 2006
