Starmer's right that Westminster is the source of Britain’s problems, but a proportional electoral system must be part of Labour’s solutions.

Otherwise the reforms of the next Labour government will be another sticking plaster.

With democratic renewal officially a top @UKLabour priority, and with Conference overwhelmingly behind Proportional Representation, the stage is set for the next phase of the campaign.

The public is ahead of the politicians on this one.

They can see our politics isn't working - and that Proportional Representation for general elections is in the public interest.

People just want a want a fair voting system. It’s time.

It's great news @Keir_Starmer@twitter.com will consult on Labour's reform plans.

It's good to see Labour are committed to HOL reform but the idea that the elected second chamber could be made up of only 200 members seems a bit fanciful: how would such a chamber operate in an efficient way, carrying out the same jobs as the current HOL does?
Also, PR reform should happen at the same time as HOL reform. Let's bring British democracy into the 21st century.

A great article on LabourList by Theo Stone putting forward a strong case for Labour to adopt PR for Westminster elections, especially as Labour now seems committed more than ever to establishing a democratically elected upper chamber to replace the House of Lords.

Hugely welcome that constitutional reform is a priority for @UKLabour@twitter.comπŸ’₯

An unelected house has no place in a modern democracy πŸ›οΈ

But democratic reform will only succeed in restoring trust in politics if it includes Proportional Representation for general elections 🌹 twitter.com/guardian/status/15

RT @getprdone: At will the @UKLabour leadership
finally accept that is needed and needs to be consigned to history?

Otherwise we'll see Labour elected, maybe once or twice twice, then it'll be back to business as usual.

Finally, Labour’s unions are seeing sense on and stopping propping up FPTP which consistently delivers Tory gov’ts.
Good news for democracy. Bad news for right-wing egomaniacs, who I recommend now become an MC instead.
