Send a message to the Leaders’ Debates Commission!

The PPC Newsletter - January 19, 2025

I wrote to you a few days ago to explain that the Leaders' Debates Commission once again modified the criteria for participation in the coming debates.

On the basis of the previous criteria, I would have automatically been allowed to participate, since the PPC got 4.9% in the 2021 election, and one of the criteria was to have received at least 4% in the last election.

But that criteria was removed, and the new ones are making my participation much less likely.

It will now depend on unreliable poll results that change from week to week and can be manipulated, for example by omitting the People’s Party as an option in the responses.

These changes only impact me and no other leader.

They seem explicitly aimed at excluding me from the debates, which would deprive the PPC's 840,000 voters in the last election of a voice.



We’ve set up a petition that you can sign online, and your message will automatically be sent to the Leaders’ Debates Commission.

PLEASE SIGN IT TODAY AND TELL THE COMMISSION THAT YOU WANT THE PPC’S VOICE TO BE HEARD!

It’s absolutely crucial that as many people as possible put pressure on the Commission to reverse its decision.

Please forward this message, or the link to the petition, to a friend or family member who cares about our democracy.

Once again, please click on this link now to sign our petition and tell the Commission that silencing an important voice is a denial of democracy!

Thanks a lot for your help,
-Max
