Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Bill

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that in Islington we had the second-worst voter registration rate in the country when the Liberals were in charge of my local council, and when we, the Labour group, tried to pass a resolution to increase voter registration, the deputy leader of the council shouted across the council chamber, ““Bu that's how we win elections””? The voter registration went up by 9,000 from 2005 to 2010, and my vote went up by 6,000.
