    Seriously? They made voting ID a council issue? Northern Ireland has had voting ID for a while and it’s dead easy to get one, only thing I needed to pay was postage on a 2nd class stamp. Pretty good as well as it basically makes a free photographic ID available

      So, you had it mailed? Wouldn’t that leave houseless people on the short end of this “dead easy” stick?

        1. You can get stuff mailed to a sheltered accomodation or homeless shelter

        2. You generally needed the polling card and an address to register to vote before this system, so I don’t see how it makes a difference.
