Voter ID

[Bentley Bullet]

I wonder if in time all information will be instantly available by means of one's fingerprint?

Mmmm, maybe the chip that has been injected into us with the COVID jab could just be the start of that.
(Imagine a tongue in cheek emoji here!)

Ahem.

[BillyStubbsTears]

So that'll be one less Tory vote then. And with a bit of luck, he might choke on the f**ker.

I don’t do Twitter but I bet there is a tweet from someone who supports the ID card idea.

I don’t do Twitter but I bet there is a tweet from someone who supports the ID card idea.

But they ain't the person proposing to introduce one now.

[drfchound]

That was seventeen years ago though wasn’t it.
People are allowed to have a change of mind aren’t they.

I heard on the bbc news today that the intention is to make the ID card free.

If it is free and sent out to every registered voter then I have no problem with it.

You should not have to apply for it. My mum wouldn't and I bet a lot of eldery and disabled voters, people without internet access wouldn't and couldn't.

  The Tories should have thought about this and brought in ration books after Brexit, everyone would have wanted one.  Then they could have changed the title and said it was to save money using the same book to vote, clever eh.
  It could even be used to make voting easier use the egg page for tory, and the bacon one for labour in case they give votes to the 16 year olds who cant read with a picture on the page.

  Syd, it is a massive fraud, they either do not exist or live in another country, are yo happy for it and other scams to carry on at the tax payers expense?

When the cost of implementing and administrating voter ID is deducted from the cost of any benefit fraud, how much will that save the country?

I still get mine selby.

[SydneyRover]

This is a massive fraud selby along with all the chummy toady contracts given out to mates that ordinary people are not privy too.

The egg motif can be used for both parties, with Tory supporters having an egg on their page, and Labour supporters having an egg on their face.

At least the bozo has worked out (or more likely he has been told) people are out of work because there are no worthwhile jobs rather than being feckless and drunk

''Boris Johnson has said the government "won't settle for going back to the way things were", as the UK emerges from the coronavirus pandemic.

He promised to end the "criminal waste of talent" in parts of the UK by spreading opportunity more evenly''

[Bentley Bullet]

We had New Labour under Blair, now we've got New Tory under Johnson. Talk of old Tory is just as archaic now as talk of old Labour was then.

[SydneyRover]

It's apt that johnson has chosen the 'one nation' tag

''because we one nation Conservatives''


One Nation is a racist far right party in Australia and struggle with shit and clay

[Bentley Bullet]

well perhaps you'd have been better staying here then?

[SydneyRover]

have you been taking selby's medication?

[SydneyRover]

If ever you decide you want a normal conversation about anything bb, happy to oblige.

[Bentley Bullet]

Skippy, I've told you time and time again, I don't want nor need back up from anybody to get my point across. I've learned in my old age an infallible trick when it comes to arguing, and that is there is a massive, MASSIVE advantage to behold when arguing, and that is to be right. You really should try it mate.

Then, you can walk alone, like me.

[SydneyRover]

I've always thought you walk alone bb, think alone and in fact a bit of a loner

[Bentley Bullet]

I walk alone, and think alone, mate, but I don't need to be on a forum from the other side of the world to not be alone.

[SydneyRover]

It's a good job then it's not your forum nor have much a say in the matter so your prejudices can be ignored bb.

Added

It's very tory to try and have anyone with a different political view excluded, aye bb?

[Bentley Bullet]

The only prejudice I have is with people who I think are wrong.

[SydneyRover]

Of course there's a world of difference between thinking and knowing. goodnight bb

It's posts like yours, selby, that lead me to think that people should have to take an exam to determine their eligibility to vote!

Don't look in the mirror then BB.

Never read one-sided lefty rags, mate.

Saw this and thought it was amusing.....

Saw this and thought it was amusing.....

Haha. Brilliant.

[Axholme Lion]

Why are the majority of left leaning posters on here so angry about this?

Because we want as many people as possible to vote.

I know exactly why the right-wing leaning posters are supportive of barriers to voting, I don't even need to ask the question.

"In a democracy, it is for the voters to decide who governs. It is not for the government to decides who votes".

The government aren't deciding who votes, they are just ensuring the people who do have the right to.
