We are Migrant Democracy Project
The Government has just announced the Representation of the People Bill 2026!
In this Bill, the Government makes positive steps to modernise our democracy by lowering the voting age to 16, expanding the list of acceptable photo IDs, and implementing some automated voter registration methods.
But! Do you see what is missing!?
That's right! Despite our many many asks, the Bill makes no provisions for extending the right to vote to all residents.
When Scotland and Wales lowered the voting age to 16, they also used the opportunity to extend the franchise to all residents.
The Government can follow suit. But that requires you to write to your MP and ask them to table an amendment to the Elections Bill.
We are building migrant power in the UK. Will you join us to:
1 in 6 UK residents were not born in the UK. We are many. It’s time to make migrant voices count in UK politics.
