Unlock Democracy campaigns
for a vibrant, inclusive
democracy that puts power in
the hands of the people.
For us, people must always be at
the heart of our political processes.
This is why we took such a strong
line against a Lobbying Bill which
left corporate lobbying virtually
untouched whilst threatening the
vital role that the voluntary sector
plays in mobilising people to
campaign for change.
2015 will pose fundamental
questions about our democracy
- with the outcome of the Scottish
independence referendum and a
general election - as well as our
history with the 800th anniversary
of the Magna Carta. The debate
about where power lies in our
society remains a journey not a
destination. It is essential that this
is a conversation that involves all of
us, not just political elites.
If Scotland remains in the UK, it
is not enough for Westminster
and Holyrood to decide amongst
themselves what further devolution
means. Nor can we ignore the
fact that, with the exception of
London, England has yet to start
its devolution journey. Equally,
commemoration of the Magna
Carta must not be confned to self-
congratulation about the events of
1215. Unlock Democracys mission
in the run up to this important
anniversary must be to use it to
reignite the spark of reform. We will
be holding meetings up and down
the country to talk to you about
what rights and freedoms you think
need protecting today. Please do
join in the debate!

Unlock Democracy has over four
thousand members - activists
committed to democratic reform.
This year we have been reaching
out to past and lapsed members
as a part of our ongoing strategy
to revitalise our membership. We
have had a very positive response
with 10% of lapsed members
contacted signing back up.
Throughout the year we have been
sending out fundraising letters
and emails which have resulted in
many past members renewing their
support. This is a critical year for
democratic reform in the lead up to
the general election, which is why
we focused on encouraging our
supporters to have their say on our
priorities, and to carry on helping
us with our campaigns.
We have also been developing
our wider fundraising strategy
to enable our supporter base
to donate to our campaigns
online. We have evolved our use
of website donation pages to
have specifc pages for each of
our campaigns. A key area for
improving fundraising has been our
newly-implemented policy to follow
up all campaigns actions with a
donations ask. This has boosted
donations and enabled us to recruit
more members through our online
campaigns. Our members wanted
to know where their donations
are going, so we introduced You
donate. We do. into our fundraising
letters: whenever we ask for money,
we show our members what their
donations could make possible.
Membership
Did you know that in
2014, the Government
introduced the
Lobbying Act and it
impacts on how we
can communicate
with members and
donors?
The Act regulates how
we talk to the public in
the run-up to a general
election. When we
are only contacting
our committed
supporters, these
communication
are exempt from the
restrictions in the
Act. Supporters who
give by Direct Debit
count as committed
supporters, but those
who donate by cash
may not.
If youd like to
become a direct
debit donor and for
more details on the
impact of the act visit

Campaigns
We are at a critical point for the
future of the UKs democracy.
The last twelve months proved
that the political elite have failed
to deliver fundamental reforms.
In fact, theyve gone backwards,
introducing legislation to muzzle
campaigners. With the support
of our members joining us in
challenging the government we
have made the case for a better
democracy.
Over the last two years, we have
reinvigorated ourselves as a
campaigning organisation with the
introduction of new advocacy tools.
We are now in a strong position
to respond and mobilise around
our core issues. Importantly, we
now deliver tools to our supporters
to empower them to write to
politicians.
The fnal two years of an
electoral cycle mean both
keeping our issues on the
Governments agenda and
infuencing the parties
manifesto agenda. We are
working with fewer resources
but no less passion for unlocking
democracy.

Weve been featured in all the
national newspapers with our
Director, Senior Campaigner
and our Research & Policy
Offcer all getting quoted.
This year more than 20,000
people took actions with us
via our site including writing
to party leaders, their MPs
and councillors.
Weve taken the case for
reform to new audiences by
venturing further into social
media and digital campaigning
to produce memes, Storify and
Buzzfeed articles that have
been read over 20,000 times.
We have gained hundreds of
followers on Twitter and
Facebook.

Our frst big campaign of the
year was against the restrictions
on grassroots campaigning
which the government slipped
into Part 2 of the Lobbying Bill -
aka the Gagging Law.
These regulations will seriously
restrict ordinary campaigning
activities in the run-up to an
election, shutting down debate
by hitting campaign groups with a
mass of red tape.
10,000 people took part in our
actions on the Gagging Law. We
asked you to write to MPs, Lords
and ministers, and the last-minute
petition to stop the Gagging Law
got 160,000 signatures. It was this
grassroots pressure that forced the
government to pause the Bill for six
weeks to consult with campaigners
and ultimately make changes to the
Bill.
Pressure from our campaign with
the Commission on Civil Society
and Democratic Engagement
forced the government to make
important concessions:
Protecting small campaigns by
raising the registration threshold
Giving campaigns more time
to adapt by cutting the regulatory
period to 7.5 months
Raising spending limits in Scotland,
Wales and Northern Ireland
The Lords voted in favour of several
more amendments sponsored by
the Civil Society Commission, but
the government sent the Bill back
to the Commons the following
morning, and MPs voted to remove
our changes despite barely having
time to consider them. The Bill may
have passed, but the campaign
against the Gagging Law doesnt
end here.

Though our main focus was on
the Gagging Law, we continued
our efforts to strengthen
the governments proposed
register of lobbyists in Part 1
of the Lobbying Bill. In order
for lobbying to be transparent,
we have to know who is being
lobbied, about what, and how
much is being spent.
The governments plans failed in
every respect: they only cover
a tiny minority of lobbyists and
require lobbyists to declare even
less information than the existing
voluntary registers.
We pushed for a comprehensive
register which would include
the information that is needed
to hold politicians and lobbyists
to account. We made the case
for tightening the register on
social media, produced briefngs
for MPs and peers, and asked
them to support amendments
strengthening the register.
Though the government were
forced to close some loopholes,
the register remains deeply
inadequate and we are actively
involved in developing proposals to
replace it. Labour have committed
to introducing a comprehensive
register and we will keep up the
pressure to make sure they follow
through.
Scotland
The Scottish Government has
promised to introduce its own
lobbying regulation. Scotland has
the opportunity to go further than
Westminster and create a truly
comprehensive register. We held
a public meeting in Edinburgh
with Spinwatch and ERS Scotland
to ask Is lobbying a problem for
Scotland? We also contributed to
the Scottish Parliaments lobbying
inquiry, which will be debated in
Holyrood in the autumn.

A string of party funding
scandals - with mystery donors
buying access to ministers,
and senior opposition fgures
at lavish gala dinners - has
reinforced the need to kick big
money out of politics. After
the failure of cross-party talks
on party fnance last year, we
needed to keep up the pressure
on the political parties. We built
a tool which allows supporters
to write to the party leaders
asking them to put a cap on
donations in their manifesto
for the general election.
We have also teamed up with
Spinwatch to create a new online
data portal - Follow the Money
- which will be a one-stop shop
for anyone looking at how money
infuences politics. This will include:
Details of donations to political
parties
Details of meetings ministers
have with external organisations
The register of MPs and peers
interests
Lobbying registers
Follow the Money will be
an invaluable resource for
transparency campaigners,
making it easier to fnd links
between politicians, lobbyists
and big donations.

" The public feels our politics is for
sale and that politicians listen to
donors and lobbyists, but not voters.
The big problem is this isn't shocking
any more. Voters have started to see
this as part of the political process
and it shouldn't be."
Alexandra Runswick, Director
The Guardian 2nd July 2014

The expenses scandal brought
trust in politicians to a new low,
but many of the MPs involved
faced no consequences at the
ballot box because they held a
safe seat. After the scandal, all
parties agreed that voters who
have lost confdence in their MP
should be able to vote to recall
them between elections.
After another lobbying scandal the
government has revived its plans
for recall. However, they want to put
the decision to recall in the hands
of a parliamentary committee,
rather than voters. Recall must
empower ordinary people if it is
to rebuild trust in our politicians.
With the right safeguards to
prevent abuse, recall could
strengthen accountability and
deepen democracy.
We have been working with
Zac Goldsmith MP and other
campaigns to build support for real
recall, where voters decide when
and why an MP should be recalled.
This autumn, we are publishing
a report which will examine
the lessons from recall in other
countries to develop a workable
proposal for recall in the UK.

" The government's watered down

illusion that people will have a say in
recalling their elected representative
while ensuring that this will probably
never happen in practice."

BBC, 4th June 2014

Two years after party political
wrangling scuppered the last
attempt at Lords reform, the
general election gives us the
next big opportunity for change.
The Lords helpfully provided a
string of scandals which underlined
the case for democratic reform:
peers were caught signing dodgy
lobbying deals, clocking in and out
to claim expenses and moaning
about their taxpayer-subsidised
restaurants. This summers list of
appointments was dominated by
the usual suspects: party donors,
former politicians and assorted
hangers-on.
The piecemeal approach to reform
of the Lords carried on at a glacial
pace with this years House of
Lords Reform Bill, which tinkered
with retirement and disciplinary
powers. However they ignored
the fundamental problem with
the House of Lords - the lack of
democratic accountability. We
welcomed some aspects of the bill
but continued to make the case for
an elected upper house.
In the run-up to the general election
it is vital to keep Lords reform on
the political agenda.
We built a new tool which allows
supporters to write to the party
leaders on Lords reform. Youve
already sent over 2,500 letters
urging them to make reforming the
Lords a priority. We also submitted
a response to Labours policy
consultation on Lords reform.

As a campaign for democratic
reform one of our primary aims
is to infuence legislation going
through Parliament. We feed into
the legislative process by giving
evidence to committees, holding
public meetings in Parliament
and working with individual MPs.
Unlock Democracy gave evidence
to the following committees in
2013/14:
Political and Constitutional
Reform Committee:
- voter engagement in the UK
- redrawing of parliamentary
boundaries
Scottish Parliament:
Standards, Procedures and
Public Appointments Committee
- lobbying in Scotland
We also sent fve briefngs to MPs
and peers on the Lobbying Bill and
gave evidence to the Civil Society
Commission, a coalition of over 160
campaign groups, on the effect
the Bill would have on grassroots
campaigns.
We organised several public
meetings in Parliament, some of
which were standing room only:

Parliamentary Work
How to re-engage people with
Parliament, a lecture by Angela
Eagle MP, Shadow Leader of the
House of Commons
Political change must come
- but how?, a lecture by Natalie
Bennett, leader of the Green
Party
Launch of Options for a

We know there are real problems
with our democracy - the
electoral system, the unelected
Lords, party funding - but they
can only be solved if voters
can use their voice to demand
change. Weve been at the
forefront of campaigns since the
last general election highlighting
the infuence of big money
in politics and championing
democracy with Vote Match and
Election Leafets.


In 2013 and 2014 we took the time
to test the waters and prepare for
the upcoming general election.
Our supporters have given us an
amazing response to the work
we have done on broadening
participation. We recognise that as
we go forward towards the general
election we need to bring people
in through unifying projects and
campaigns. Weve worked with
supporters and local groups to
shape an action plan to champion
democracy and build a movement
for change.
Championing Democracy:
Preparing for 2015
Election Leafets is the newest
of Unlock Democracys projects.
Election Leafets (ElectionLeafets.
org) is based on the idea that
what politicians put through our
letterboxes should be accountable.
What they say to get elected
matters, whether in the manifesto
or on a leafet. We also wanted
to get a voters eye view of
election campaigns. This is where
ElectionLeafets.org comes in.
This website encourages people
to upload the leafets they have
received from political parties
during election campaigns to create
the frst ever online and publicly
available archive of election leafets.
In 2013 we started working with the
team behind the Election Leafets
website to promote the site for the
local elections in Leicestershire
and Cornwall. In 2014, we took
the next step with the European
Parliament elections, where for
the frst time we directly promoted
the site as a project of Unlock
Democracy.
1000+ leafets were added
during the European & Local
Elections to the 9000-strong
database
supported Universities across
the UK to build their archives
now have a thriving twitter
account @ElectionSpotter
providing real time uploads
of leafets
increased media coverage
for both Unlock Democracy
and Election Leafets, with a
feature in the Big Issue
Election Leafets is essential in
holding politicians to account.
This project helps us build a map
of where and how parties are
targeting their campaigning. We
have exciting plans for developing
the website over the next few years

Vote Match
The European elections in May
saw another successful outing
for our voter advice application,
Vote Match.
Vote Match is an online quiz
which helps voters fnd the parties
that best match their views in an
election. We worked with teams
from 14 EU countries to produce
Vote Match Europe, which covered
the top issues in the European
elections, from EU membership to
immigration and climate change.
By the end of polling day, 150,000
people had taken Vote Match -
more than double our total for the
previous European elections
Vote Match was covered by the
BBC, Guardian and Independent
The top issues for our users were
same-sex marriage, fracking,
and immigration
We are planning a new version of
Vote Match for the general election
next year aimed at young people,
who are the group least likely to
vote. One in fve non-voters say
they dont know enough about
politics to choose. Vote Match aims
to lower the barriers to information
about parties and their policies,
so that young people have the
confdence to make their choice at
the ballot box.
In the autumn well be bringing
together journalists, campaigners,
politicians and ordinary people to
work out the big issues we should
be asking the political parties
for their views on for the general
election Vote Match.

This years local and European
elections were the last public
elections to use household
voter registration, as July saw
the introduction of Individual
Electoral Registration. We
warned that if not handled
properly the changes to
registration would have a severe
impact. The electoral register
is 86% complete, which leaves
7.5 million voters missing
in action. Without efforts to
boost registration, IER could
see registration rates fall even
further.
This year we have been working
on promoting voter registration on
various fronts:
We supported Bite the Ballots
National Voter Registration Day,
promoting this to our entire
mailing list and on social media,
with several members volunteering
to be group leaders in their area.
We worked on Join the Vote!
- an exciting new initiative with
38 Degrees which aims to get
people out registering with their
neighbours.

Now a founding member of the
League of Young Voters Coalition.
We built a bespoke Vote Match
tool for young people, and
worked together to promote the
deadline for voter registration.
We ran a trial community driven
voter registration drive in North
London, registering over 300
people in one constituency over
a month.



Voter Registration
What is in store for this year?
We are about to run a pilot project
in the North East of England to
increase rates of voter registration.
Already a lot of research and
preparation has gone into this
area. We will be working with
other community and voluntary
organisations in the North East
to build a network of groups and
volunteers that register people to
vote.

We are very excited to have been
granted funding from the Millfeld
House Foundation to make this
happen, but we want to do more.
With this funding, your donations
to this campaign will go further.

Building local activism is at the
heart of our campaigning. This
year we have continued to go
from strength to strength. Our
goal is to build a network of
Unlock Democracy groups and
support unaffliated democracy
groups. We are continuing to
create new local groups and
support activists across the
country.
This year, as resources got tighter,
we have focused on developing
resources to support Unlock
Democracy groups, whilst
continuing to promote the activism
of organisations who share our
values.
Local Activism
We have increased the number
of Unlock Democracy local
groups
Unlock Democracy groups now
have more campaign resources
and are more visible online
with our new dynamic local
group pages
We have continued to deliver
national grassroots meetups
- a regular gathering for local
groups and activists to network.
At our last meetup we had over
30 activists attending and
together we designed a 6 month
campaign plan
Our local groups are continuing
to deliver great public meetings,
and now with support, are
regularly making submissions
to government consultations
Weve been promoting
and supporting the work
of DemocracyClub.org.uk
in preparation for 2015
The next 12 months are a very
exciting time to be getting involved
with the Scottish referendum,
general election and the Magna
Carta anniversary. We need you to
help to keep growing our activist
base. There is lots to do and plenty
of ways to be involved!
Please get in touch with

Whilst we have our priorities
that shape our core campaigns,
the depth of the democratic
reform remit enables us to work
on a wide range of areas. To do
this we work in several coalitions
with over 100 organisations.
We believe in working together
and collaborating to achieve
our goals.
Counting Women in
We are one of the founding
members of a coalition set up
by fve leading campaigning
organisations in democracy
and womens rights. The
campaign aims for 50/50 gender
representation at all levels of
national, local and devolved
government. This year as a
coalition we put out the second
Sex and Power Report: Who
Runs Britain. Unlock Democracy
produced all of the social media
infographics for the report which
were shared over 1000 times.
Democracy Matters brings
together a wide range of civil
society and community groups
to campaign to get more support
for learning how to campaign and
act in politics, so that anyone who
wants to change things can learn
how the system works, who to
infuence and how to campaign
effectively. This year we have
supported the core team with
promotional activities, and together
launched a petition to party leaders
for the democracy declaration.
The Commission on Civil Society
and Democratic Engagement
was set up in October 2013
following concerns that the
Lobbying Bill was likely to have a
chilling effect on campaigning. It
is supported by over 150 charities
and campaigning organisations
including Unlock Democracy.
We have given evidence to the
Commissions two inquiries and
Coalition Work
continue to support its work to fnd
an alternative to the Lobbying Act.
Media Reform Coalition
represents an independent
coalition of groups and individuals
committed to maximising the
public interest in the media.
The League of Young Voters
was formed in 2014 to address the
challenge that not enough young
people are registering and voting
in the UK.
Human Rights Alliance
We are members of an NGO
network that brings together over
100 members to share information,
build capacity and confdence,
and where appropriate, to
undertake joint initiatives aimed
at ensuring respect for the human
rights framework in the UK.
Local Works
We are a founding member
of the Local Works Coalition
which supports the Sustainable
Communities Act. Local Works
campaigning saw the government
improve the Sustainable
Communities Act by:
Making regulations that
empower Parish Councils to use
the Act directly

Signing a legal agreement that
sets out how government must
negotiate with the Selector on
local proposals
We helped get the frst Parish
Council proposal under the new
rules - for internal communications
to be sent electronically if desired
by the council - agreed by the
government
To promote the use of the Act
we organised
Three large public meetings
in London
25 local community meetings
across the country
