Miftan posted:I mean sure, but how would voter ID for postal voting even work (if anybody had any interest in implementing it)? When I vote for elections in my home county I have to put my ballot in one envelope, then stuff that envelope with a copy of my passport into a bigger envelope. This way somebody can check whether my postal vote is valid without seeing the ballot itself.

Guavanaut posted:Maybe I'm overly cautious, but when it comes to English local councils (especially ones that don't even have an upload form on their website) I assume they mean scanned in a document scanner and you'll get return emails saying "no that's a photo" otherwise. I use Adobe Scan a lot for receipts as I am in charge of the petty cash at work as well as being Chief Office Milk Buyer on Mondays. Also taught one of my colleagues to use it so when she was abroad (on work business) she could easily submit her receipts every day so could keep up with the expenditure instead of the usual 'oh god what was that for' or 'where's the receipt for that £100 you spent on overnight accommodation' Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 22:48 on May 3, 2023 |

kingturnip posted:Not a huge fan of the overly showy style he's got going on. Makes him sound like he's trying to sell me the world's most shatter-resistant beer mug. For sure, but given how poo poo Starmer's Labour is about anyone saying anything that might offend a mythical red wall racist, I'm amazed he's allowed to say that about the Royals. Makes me wonder what is actually going on. Maybe he's just entirely unimportant in the grand scheme of things.

Just classic "gotta talk about something else" political optics. It's like when a journalist asks the PM why he got his dick stuck in a can opener and he replies "the British people aren't interested in petty Westminster drama, what I want to talk about is how I've given everyone a puppy and will continue to do so throughout this parliament"

Why would Peston, a nominal journalist, be "undermining" Starmer when he's not subservient to him? Are they complaining that he's reporting on something actually happening?

I'm having trouble getting motivated enough to vote. It's a choice between Greens and Labour here (well there's the blue and yellow tories too, but who cares) and I don't really like either right now - the greens went hard NIMBY on affordable housing last time, in one of the top CoL places in the country, while Labour is, well, current Labour.
