The extension of the franchise to all UK citizens who have previously lived in the UK is a foreword step for our democracy - although it does little to address our antiquated and unfair voting system.  If you have a vote, you have a potential voice but this voice will only be heard if political parties listen to your opinions and work for your vote. To do this they need to be able to contact you both to hear from you and to present to you why they merit your vote. Unfortunately the Electoral Register contains only the current postal address of overseas voters - and contacting voters by post is simply too slow and too expensive to be practicable. If you give us your email address and old postcode - we will be able to determine which constituency you will be able to vote in and keep you in touch with the campaign in that constituency. You can opt out of emails at any time. We would also like to hear from you about the issues you face as a UK Citizen overseas. Please complete our overseas voters survey to make your voice heard.
