Closed Abolish the Electoral Commission as Unfit for Purpose

Closed on

We the voters believe that the Electoral Commission has failed to perform its duties to protect the electorate against widespread postal voting fraud and has not acted with due diligence in ensuring that the names of political parties and their slogans are sufficiently different to prevent any confusion in the voting booth.

It should, therefore be abolished as unfit for purpose and replaced with a body that is prepared to vigorously root out electoral corruption, wherever it occurs and in whatever guise it takes.
