Title: Voter I D
Post by: Alex on April 28, 2022, 11:07:43 AM
Voter ID passed its final votes in the Lords yesterday, finally, voting in a nation-changing election won't be easier than collecting a parcel from the Post Office.

Reported by Darren Grimes, I trust this is correct.

That is still the latest offial stuff I can see.

It doesn't say anything about the alleged practice of postal vote forms being collected by "community leaders".

Taa. Explains why there is little in news as it hasn't actually got royal assent but clearly will.

Does it do anything about postal votes?

I think it is probably a good thing.  It looks as though bus passes will be accepted although my hair has changed colour since my photo was taken.
