CONTACT POINT MESSAGE TO THE ELECTORAL COMMISSION

Sent the following message to the Electoral Commission through its contact point in the website:

Dear Sirs

I have had considerable difficulty in joining the Labour Party, the Liberal Democrats Party, the Reform UK Party and the Conservative and Unionist Party, all of whom have acted most unreasonably towards me such that I am disenfranchised from the election process not knowing which Party to vote for.

These Parties are not regulated well by the Electoral Commission which needs to set guidelines on the relationship between a Political Party and its Active Members.

I consider Democracy to be of the paramount importance in that Members should be given the reasons for which a Political Party dithers with the continuance of a particular Party-Member relationship.

This will generate a system of Electoral Reform that will streamline the democratic process and people would then know which Party they should vote for by sifting through what is propaganda for elections from vested interests in the hierarchy of a Party.

That will be good for the country.
