Well, I assume you vote?

Read the question love, I have ID, I assume you do not.
I am not stupid thank you, but was not aware of the need for ID to vote.
> surely we don't want people that thick voting anyway

What, since Brexit is finished now???

chelle 15:49, how can you not be aware? I assume this is not the first you've heard of it? Do you have ID now?
Question Author
15:49, well more of us voted than you so what happened to the "smart" people then?
I have always had problems when photo ID is required as I do not have a driving licence or passport. However, on the list for ID voting is an OAP bus pass and a blue badge holder so I can you one of those. The list of accepted ID is quite long and if you do not have any of them you can apply via the website. I would assume that many of the people who have not applied have one of the ID's mentioned on the list.

eva, yes, no excuse, just a lot of idiots moaning about nothing.
surely we don't want people that thick voting anyway do we?

Imagine if they were poorer than you and drove too, catastrophe, diluting the voting intelligentsia with their ordinariness.
Wasn't maggiebee's comment intended as a joke?
This is the first I've heard of it yes. How have people been made aware of it?
its on the voting cards

A lot of people don't watch TV

It's on the voting cards and it's been on countless news outlets on a multitude of media on TV, net, radio, bill boards, there are people in the Alaskan wilderness who know. I doubt anyone is really not aware just using it as an excuse to moan.
It could mean there will be hundreds of thousands more applying for postal votes so that will not make some folk on here happy.
Or too young to get a form of id which is acceptable? Senior railcard yes, under 25 railcard no! Both require proof of id to obtain.
TTT didn't get maggie's joke. But (s)he's not the most painful prick in the bicep. End of.
(Sorry TTT. I know I'm on your spreadsheet of losers and not to be replied to. But not to worry. I don't count, being a 5C)
I don't understand how anybody cannot know about I.D. being needed - I seem to have known for years (or so it feels). I'm glad that bus passes are acceptable, because otherwise I would have a problem as my passport and driving licence are in my maiden name.
This actually could catch out a lot of women, who would need to take along their wedding cert..
Having said that, it has been advertised for ages (over a year I think) that you can apply to your local council for a suitable proof of identity. It was seen as patently obvious when I lived in France, that you had to bring along some proof of your right to vote.
This is obviously a measure that's been brought in by the incumbent government because they think it will benefit their party at the ballot box. That being the case the only mystery is why David Davies is criticising it. Perhaps because when you're old, and no longer 'in the game' as it were, you can speak freely and according to your conscience.
