We think this would give democracy back to the people of the UK if a government is not making the changes the public expect or if not delivering their manifesto; they can be removed to avoid the extended damage the current system allows.

Hold General Elections every four years
Introduce a change to the law so that the maximum period between General Elections is reduced from five years to four years.
Rolling General Election: 20% of seats elected each year in first week of May
Change the General Election format so that it is fixed, with one-fifth of seats contested each year in the first week of May just like local government elections. The Government cannot choose the date, it is fixed by Parliament.
Change the UK tax year to start on the 1st of January
The UK tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April, a relic of 1752 when Britain switched calendars and “lost” 11 days. That historical quirk made sense then - but today, it’s a barrier to simplicity and global alignment. Let's modernise our system for ease and alignment with over 120 other countries.
Only allow a change of prime minister through a general election
Pass a law to ensure that if a Prime Minister leaves office a new general election is held.
Modernise UK elections with mandatory preferential, weekend voting
We think the UK's electoral system is embarrassingly outdated. We're one of the few developed democracies still clinging to first-past-the-post
