 New stretch target

With the extra funding we'll be able to start to bring on full time support for creating campaigns and mobilising people.

Changing the world won't happen on evenings and weekends. We want to fight full time for our futures!


We're back for the By-Elections

3 Tory MPs resigned, and so we can flip them on July 20th.

Consider this a warm up!

Our Story: Nobody had ever tried to do this for the local elections before

In terms of candidates, there are thousands more than at a general election. Trying to work out who people should vote for is HARD!

Our small team of volunteers attempted it, and we hoped we would deliver something that people were crying out for.

450,000 people used the website to find out how to vote tactically on May 4th.

A totally unprecedented level of interest for this kind of tool.

Showing a clear desire for the information that hadn't been so easily available before.

This project was set up without funding, and due to its popularity our data search and hosting costs increased dramatically.

Website: Stop The Tories .VOTE

( We're also the team behind Swap My Vote )

The initial £5k funding helped us:

  • Pay for the postcode search service from the excellent Democracy Club (go support them too!)
  • Pay for our website hosting costs

Once we reached the £5k target we extended the target to fund:

  • making it even better for the most important general election of our lifetime
  • make sure our data is even more accurate
  • reach more people who are looking for a way out of the mess our country is in
  • develop campaigns with our growing community of Movement Forward supporters

We're up against billionaires, but there are more of us!

Cost of living

This is a really hard time to ask for money.

Our primary goal is that people use our tools to help them in the democratic process.

So please please, only support us financially if you're able.

This is the start, help us build the rest.

We can’t compete just doing this on evenings and weekends.

Power a movement. Own our future.
