XMNN posted:I gave the woman with the blue rosette my number because I was half-awake and not really paying attention have I assisted the enemy in some way? Yeah I did the same, slightly worried because she looked a bit like maggie thatcher come to think of it. Worried I may have contributed to the dark incantation which will raise her from the dead or something.

The people asking for polling numbers are from the popular parties checking to see who has voted They are very much legit. I know this as I used to be one of those people taking the numbers back when my father was a candidate in the 1980's. From the canvassing, the candidates will identify likely voters for their party and they will go and assist those who are likely to vote for them. Giving lifts to the polling station and such. Edit, phone posting adds spelling errors.

Voted! Also took my two grandparents to vote and they both voted Conservative, thus making my trip there not only pointless but counterproductive. Democracy in action folks.

Voted Labour in a seat where my vote could actually make a difference! (Hove) Funny how many people in the office today thought that not having proportional representation was insane but won't think about it for another five years.

ukle posted:Isn't that the norm for Millbank every weekday, or it was when I lived there for 6 months a decade ago; it was wall to wall politicians, bureaucrats and spies, really nice area though. Eh, it usually isn't so bad unless it's lunch time or something. But yeah, it isn't a bad area! I voted Labour, which to be honest was such a wasted vote here... Oh well, let's see what tonight reveals about the idiocy or the intelligence of the British public!

Just had myself a cheeky vote. Polling station was in a primary school about fifty times nicer than my primary school. They had chickens and ducks. I think it played an effect on how I voted, but I can't say for sure which way.

A pub near George Square is probably the best if it's a Scottish goon meet, mainly so people can get there easily from the train. From all the burger comments sounds like plenty of us work in that kind of area already. Edinburgher here, so I think I stand a good chance at least Scottish even with foreign nationals in the mix.

Between this and the absolute crushing defeat of the conservatives in Alberta this week, you might finally get the right-wing on board with FPTP reform. Well, no you won't. But one can dream.

Voting reform is settled for at least a generation. It'd be an affront to democracy to rerun the referendum, no matter how people may feel about the issue in future.

From all the burger comments sounds like plenty of us work in that kind of area already. The work crew quite like Sloanes on Buchanan Street, or there's that Spoons on the corner right by George Square. I have lived here 1 whole month so will bow to local knowledge on better establishments!

Agreed, at least 20 or 30 years, since I've arbitrarily determined that this is appropriate. The last thing we need is an electoral-system neverendum.
