Support a House of Citizens

We need government to be on our side. But right now politicians are only accountable to their cronies in the Lords, so it’s too easy for them to put their party before the people. For this to change, British politics has to change. 

The new Labour government has an opportunity to scrap the House of Lords and replace it with a chamber we can trust, a House of Citizens. Show your support for upgrading our democracy with a permanent rolling citizens' assembly.

Petition text:

To Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and Minister for the Constitution Nick Thomas–Symonds MP

We the undersigned believe Britain needs a fresh start. Politics just isn’t working for people like us. Too often, politicians promise us the earth to get elected, then just don’t deliver. We need a group of people we can trust to hold politicians to account and keep their promises. Instead of a corrupt and outdated House of Lords we need a House of Citizens to help restore our trust in British politics and make us feel proud of our democracy once more.

Text: Who do you trust to do right by you? On the left 8 members of the House of Lords, on the right 8 participants of a Citizens' Assembly
