We have just had a letter through from the local Electoral Register to update the names of people eligible to vote in our house With it came a leaflet basically saying who is eligible to vote You don't have to be a British Citizen, ANYONE from the following countries is entitled to vote in the UK Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Holland, Poland, Portugal, Ireland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Anguilla, Bermuda, British Antarctic Territory, British Indian Ocean Territory, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Monserrat, Pitcairn Island, Henderson Island, Dulcie Island, Oeno Island, St Helena, Ascension Island, Tristan de Cunha, South Georgia, South Sandwich Islands, Turks and Caicos Islands, Virgin Islands, Antigua and Barbuda, Canada, Kenya, Nauru, St Vincent and Grenadines, Tonga, Australia, Dominica, Kiribati, New Zealand, Samoa, Trinidad and Tobago, Bahamas, Fiji, Lesotho, Nigeria, Seychelles, Tuvalu, Bangladesh, Gambia, Malawi, Pakistan, Sierra Leone, Uganda, Barbados, Ghana, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Singapore, Belize, Grenada, Malta, Cyprus, Solomon Islands, Tanzania, Botswana, Guyana, Mauritius, Rwanda, South Africa, Vanuatu, Brunei, India, Mozambique, St Christopher and Nevis, Sri Lanka, Zambia, Cameroon, Jamaica, Namibia, St Lucia, Swaziland, and last but not least Zimbawbe. I was SHOCKED! Is it any wonder we are in the state we are in. When did this happen? This has all the hallmarks of Labour vote rigging sometime in the past because I can't imagine anyone from Namibia is ever going to vote conservative. This has got to get raised as an issue. Whats even more amazing is the form doesn't even require you to provide any proof of who you are and where you come from you just write a name, and where you allegedly come from and post it off. There is no form of checking.
