"No to AV" : final words



The No to AV campaign write:
Play videoToday sees the second NO to AV referendum broadcast, in which David Blunkett, David Cameron, John Reid and hundreds of NO to AV supporters urge voters to keep One Person One Vote.

Following the success of the first broadcast, in which NO to AV used three short films – including the return of Alan B’Stard – to illustrate the problems with the Alternative Vote system, the new broadcast focuses on the benefits of First Past the Post and the safeguarding of the principle of One Person One Vote.

The second NO to AV referendum broadcast will air this evening (Monday 1 May) at: 6.55pm (BBC ONE), 5.55pm (BBC TWO), 6.25pm (ITV ONE), 7.05pm (CHANNEL 4) and  6.55pm (CHANNEL 5).

With just three days to go, the campaign is really hotting up. On Saturday NO to AV launched our ‘Get Out the Vote’ Battle Bus Tour, and over the next few days we will send out another 15 million leaflets and hold hundreds of street stalls across the country.

Battle BusOur aim with the Battle Bus tour is to explain and inform voters about the dangers of a switch to the unfair and expensive Alternative Vote system. We have always tried to explain why First Past the Post is better than the Alternative Vote, whilst the Yes campaign has avoided talking about AV, choosing instead to peddle untruths about expenses and safe seats to confuse and obscure the issue.

We need all your help and support over the next three days if we are going to make the current polls a reality and preserve the historic principle of One Person One Vote for Parliamentary elections. The next 3 days are the most crucial period in this referendum and nothing is done or settled yet.

Together we can stop the Liberal Democrats rigging our voting system in their favour and destroying several hundred years of British political history. Vote NO to the Alternative Vote on 5 May.

There are three things you can do right away to help:

  1. PASS THIS EMAIL on to your friends and family;
  2. Visit our ACTION CENTRE and print off a poster to display in your window; or
  3. DONATE a small amount to help us keep the momentum going over the crucial next three days.

All the best,
Team NO to AV
