You obviously have a greater handle on this that the rest of us. Was this not investigated by the Electoral Commission? Did the other parties not complain? Looking at the news story, the commission agreed that the Plymouth council broke the rules following complaints from other candidates.

You obviously do not follow electoral issues as it WAS picked up by the Commission at the time and it was front page news in national newspapers. Students now have to vote in their own areas and NOT in their university area. You need to check on things before you try to be clever and shoot someone down especially when you know FA about the subject.
Supported Palace for over 69 years since the age of 7 and have seen all the ups and downs and will probably see many more ups and downs before I go up to the big football club in the sky. |

I think you may have misread my post or I may not have made my self clear. I was not being sarcastic I was genuinely asking as you appear to be from that area so I was bowing to your local knowledge. Peace and love.

Just to educate you a bit further: [Link] Well that is an eye opening and sorry I missed all this at the time. There is a strong argument for modernising our electoral system but aside from the cost no doubt the human rights brigade will complain if councils start checking on who voted and where.

Peace and love. Ditto.......At the moment the council down here are trying to cover up their usual "fixing of votes" by putting out loads of BS saying it was a genuine mistake.....as they did last time. Johnny Mercer is on their case now so should see some more on this story pretty soon.

ITV innit. The BBC1 Fiona Bruce programme was better. 40 mins. Farage got a real grilling from the audience. Did well I thought. I liked the ‘Well done’’ starts to his answers when an audience member went OTT at him and mostly got it wrong. I will admit to not watching the debates. To have a top 2 head to head was not representative and I would be chucking stuff at the box every time f3ck face says "get Brexit done" As to a debate involving the "rest" the last time this was tried it was described as a bunch of seagulls scrapping over a bag of chips.

Watched Nigel Farage being grilled on the BBC. Wow. Made me wish that the Brexit Party had been started a while ago because if it stood a chance of getting into power then it truly would be an evolution of our system of Governance. A radical agenda by any standard. Abolishing the House of Lords, bringing in PR and abolishing the Supreme Court which has shown itself up as just being a tool of the political establishment. Once we have left the EU I truly hope that Farage keeps it going and helps it become a continued force in British politics because we need a real change.
