we should have had voter id checks already. no idea why it took this long
The only way to create an argument that it disenfranchise minorities is to say that all minorities are just too stupid to know how to get an ID
Or they are illegals
Or non citizens
In which case, it should disenfranchise them from trying
The government is going to allow people to acquire free Electoral ID's anyway, And if someone can't be bothered to go and get one they probably don't care enough to vote anyway
"In a paper when the trial was announced, the Electoral Commission warned certain groups of the population were less likely to have acceptable forms of ID. They include young people, people from black, Asian and minority ethnic communities, women and the elderly."
So literally everybody
Apart from white middle aged people, although they were probably just not listed. Its not even as if they are barred from voting, just perhaps disenfranchised from doing so.
no but you see if you subtract women and the elderly, ethnic minorities will turn the tide of an election. textbook rigging
“The trial was deemed a waste of time and the public’s money, and this roll-out will be no different. The Conservative Government have already showed disdain for our democracy and this move is simply further confirmation of that.
“Rather than electioneering by making it harder to vote, the Conservative Government should be focusing on ways to encourage democratic participation, such as through extending voting rights to 16 year olds"
This is the part where we all throw our heads back in laughter.
'they should be focusing on ways to encourage democratic participation, such as ignoring what people vote for and doing whatever they want to.'
Absolute monarchy as long as the rulers are warrior kings tbh
That would be protofascism
>(((Democracy)))
KEK
Imagine voting.
We should just embrace Fascism.
No
Fascism is stupid
Liberalism has failed us.
So move away from Liberalism towards Libertarianism
That is liberalism
Moron
Fascism means your country is either going to be at war or preparing for war
False
It's not a good idea long term
False. @The Electric Lizard
It's not false
Fascism is Militaristic and Expansionistic
What do you think that combination is going to lead to?
Not always expansionist, no.
Greece wasn't when they were.
In the vast majority of cases
but @The Electric Lizard false, you can't argue with that
Spain wasn't
Portugal wasn't
Italy was
Germany was
