Rejected petition Stop the Government introducing photo ID to vote at Elections

Convictions for voter impersonation at last election: 1

People turned away in just 8 council areas in voter ID trials: 819

People without photo ID: 3.5m

Without passport/driving license: 11m

This will have a huge impact on those who cannot afford photo ID & subsequently cannot vote.
