I have received a letter from my local authority confirming that a person unknown has registered at my address to vote in the upcoming election. When I rang the council they agreed to remove the name but seemed completely disinterested in the potential extent of such voter registration fraud. With no requirement to show evidence of identity/address at the polling station and a willingness of local authorities to add anyone to the roll who applies I am left wondering at the potential scale of this fraud. The lady I spoke with simply said that they rely on householders calling them to remove such people but how many take the time to report as I did ? Also, does anyone know with whom I can take this further ?
