Petition (Electoral Postal Voting)! Only For The Elderly, Infirm & People on Holiday.

The Postal Voting System is outdated; many people who become Postal Voters are in many cases fit and have transport and are able to go to the Polling Station. There should be a Fine of £25 if you are able bodied and can easily get to a polling Station. Postal voting is open to large abuse.

More details

If you are not able to physically get to a UK voting station you should have a voting card sent to your home or otherwise you'll have to convince Local Authorities why you cannot get to your Voting Station to vote.
If your reason is not convincing you will be fined a minimum of £25.
