Petition COMPULSORY VOTING IN ELECTIONS

More details

I want Voting in Local and General Elections to be made compulsory.

Our Forbears Fought for our right to vote and it is vital that we use this right before we lose it.

This would mean that we would get a true and accurate result in all elections.

Failure to vote would also see a Fine of perhaps £100 per person which could be taken from the tax coding system.

This would no doubt increase the revenue for local government.

Thank You
