The Brexit result has exposed the fragmentation of the old two-party electorate.

The Labour Party has trooped off to the hard left, Theresa May’s government is popular but at the mercy of hardline Brexiteers, and the Liberal Democrats remain marginal and unloved, says The Economist.

That’s why Furthr is backing More United, an online campaign sporting a heart-shaped union-flag logo.

Founded by Lord Ashdown and other like-minded public figures, it takes its name from a phrase in the maiden parliamentary speech given by Jo Cox, the Labour MP whose murder in the final days of the referendum campaign brought thousands out on the streets in protest at the darkly divisive atmosphere.

More United wants a calmer, more collaborative politics. But it also wants to go further and build a centrist movement that transcends party boundaries and appeals.

The group hopes to channel donations towards candidates who conform to its principles (think: in favour of a close relationship with the continent, party-funding reform and a social market economy). Beyond that, it might provide scholarships to promising young politicians, nurture parliamentary links between like-minded MPs, deploy activists to favoured local campaigns or even, some reckon, catalyse a new political party.

Furthr is throwing its support behind More United and encourages you to do the same.
