We did it.

Last night MPs voted to give us a referendum on our voting system. And there's no doubt in my mind that this would not have happened without your dedication and commitment to the cause.

Thank you so much.

This is a historic moment - for the first time in a generation, we the people will have the right to choose how we elect the politicians - power is back in our hands.

But David Cameron, drunk on the prospect of power, is trying to rip our right away. He thinks we're "crazy." He thinks we're "ridiculous". I think we need to send him our very own, special Vote for a Change message - which goes right to the heart of his constituency in Witney.

Cameron talks change, but he wants to keep our broken politics. What message should we send him? Use our tool to create your own Cameron billboard - we'll then put up the best one in Cameron's constituency.

We've won the battle but the war isn't over. We'll face opposition from the unelected Lords and, if Cameron doubts our resolve, he may try to unpick our victory.

We need to send him a decisive message - and we're going to do it on his home turf. Submit your idea now:

On a personal note I just wanted to reiterate my thanks for all of your help and support over the past few months. This is your victory - we couldn't have done this without you.

Galloway's section is at abou 7h05 in. I've done a screen grab of the video but I doubt it will work. If not I'll just post the audio later.
