majority
% voting yes, by leaning
Should everyone keep the right to vote by post?
The verdict
Yes won comfortably, but the No side pressed the sharper accusation: one voter insisted there is “no evidence” only “because there's been no effort”, while Yes voters stressed disenfranchisement and rare convictions.
majority
% voting yes, by leaning
Is the UK's two-party system mainly caused by legacy media treating insurgent parties unfairly?
The verdict
Voters narrowly rejected the idea that media bias built the two-party system, with No voters pointing to Reform's heavy airtime: “If the media was the main problem, Reform wouldn't be getting heavily covered”.
majority
% voting yes, by leaning
Should polling organisations be legally required to publish full sample sizes and raw figures?
The verdict
Yes won overwhelmingly, and the sharpest line came from its top case: if a poll shapes national debate, “the public has a right to the raw data behind it.” No voters answered that nobody reads the data anyway.
