Change:NOW! was a historic, hopeful moment for progressives. On 30th May, we brought together 800+ campaigners, thinkers, politicians and activists to build the movement for a more democratic future. At a moment of profound political and economic division, we showed that the values that unite progressives are stronger than the forces pulling us apart. Together, we can build a bold, pragmatic agenda capable of uniting people against the far right.

PM Andy Burnham's instincts are right so far - but if he is to get us out of this political mire then he must stick to his promise to 'end business as usual'. That means wholesale democratic, electoral and economic reform. Compass Director @Neal_Compass for the @NewStatesman.

A very unexpected question from Times Radio to Compass Director @Neal_Compass this morning.

This is a momentous day, but there's a huge challenge ahead for Andy Burnham. @Neal_Compass on Times Radio

Andy Burnham has handed Labour a lifeline. Now the challenge: end business as usual. @Neal_Compass for BBC Today

⏰Andy Burnham: it’s time to fix our broken voting system! 👇Add your name to the open letter 👇 @MakeVotesMatter @UnlockDemocracy

Andy Burnham once described Proportional Representation as "an idea whose time has come". He has called for a "new kind of politics" based on "problem-solving" not "point-scoring". Now is his time to show he means it and introduce a fair voting system.

The public is clear what they want to happen with Thames Water MPs are clear too. And they are standing up and demanding that the government take it into special administration. Share this if you agree with them.

We need a different type of politics. Glad to join the growing number of Labour colleagues calling for a National Commission on Electoral Reform.

💥 THIS IS HUGE! The electoral reform amendment tabled by @alexsobel is now the single biggest amendment since the general election. 166 MPs from 8 parties have added their names - a quarter of the House of Commons. The new PM needs to listen 💪💯 politics.co.uk/news/2026/07/0…

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE 'PROGRESSIVE'? This is a question we are constantly asked. Advocating for 'progressive' politics, mobilising the 'progressive majority' - it's a fair question. Our new paper, authored by @geoffmulgan, is out today - and it answers just that.
