Despite American style vote blocking Britain is on course to elect its first Green MP.
"BBC reporter Danny Carpenter in York says hundreds of postal ballots have gone missing in the city. The problems are being blamed on a printing error and a temporary closure at the local postal sorting office. In York Outer, the Lib Dems had a notional majority of just 203, meaning the missing votes could have a significant impact and pave the way for a losing party to challenge tonight's result in the courts."

Alix Mortimer has been in contact with young voters in Sheffield who’ve stated categorically that they were segregated in queuing to vote, with reports that they were told by one official they were only ‘temporary residents’. Unbelievable disgrace.

__________

Lots more horror stories of voting irregularities including a marginal seat not having enough ballot papers.

Neo Con Labour learnt a lot from its friendship with the Shrub.
