- People will need to show photo ID before being allowed to vote in England’s local elections on 4 May, and at any future UK general election.
The government says the new rules will help prevent voter fraud but critics claim the changes will make it harder for some to vote.

It makes sense. I was honestly baffled the first time I went to vote, and found that I didn't need photo ID. That being said, efforts need to be made to lower the cost of getting photo ID.
Voter ID is free.
@@TheDangoNinja Even better then.
It’s not free???????😂
I just voted today. On top of the voter suppression by the back door with the photo ID requirement, the Tories have a number on the back of your voting slip tied to your name & address on their lists so your vote is NOT confidential. They say it's nationwide. I hope they get voted out.
How does that work??
If I, as a risk management professional in industry, proposed a solution so disproportionate to the risk faced as this, it would be laughed out before even reaching a memo.
A: Convictions is a poor measure of how much of a problem it is. How do you know it’s not rife and people just aren’t getting caught?
B: Being proactive instead of reactive is a much better approach.
A risk, as I’m sure you’re aware, is the risk that something ‘might happen’, otherwise it would be an issue.
So surly you’re not using number of convictions as a measure of probability?
'absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence' (carl sagen)
but you don't have to be a world renowned astronomer to understand that, just a bit of common sense will do ?
@@Mark-kh1ny I'm not talking about the absence of risk, I'm talking about the proportionality of risk response. There was nothing mentioned there to suggest a whole scale change in procedure plus potential disenfranchisement of voters is needed.
Yeah. Sure. Because who would have any interest in rigging elections or cheating. Requiring photo ID for electiins is _common sense_ and if you, as a _risk manager_ of all things, thought it is disproportionate, I'd have you fired for gross incompetence. Good grief, hearing this makes me glad I live in South Africa. Our electoral system seems to be lightyears more advanced than that of the UK and US.
As a US citizen, this feels familiar
I haven't voted since 2010 and i don't have a photo ID
Do you drive?
Travel?
It is the Postal Votes that need looking in to.
mostly rigged by schemers
If you don't need id to post a vote how do they know who posted it.
Our authorities are quick to make decisions and slow to listen to people's grievances. Such selfishness
You'll find the people elected to "represent" us are actually just representing themselves
India has mandatory voter id ans well as electronic voting machines, that in itself is an indication, that the UK should not be doing it..
Also, they had digital covid vaccine certificates..yikes..the UK should definitely not do any of it..

Labour voters too lazy to apply for the free voter ID
It doesn't matter to me I can't think of anyone worth voting for.
Wait... You didn't need to bring your ID previously?
lol
I can't imagine voting WITHOUT my ID.
You had to register to vote prior, and that was all you needed. It's worked fine for decades. Voter fraud in the West is basically non-existent because it's way too easy to get caught for very little payoff. FpTP makes it even more difficult to sway an election with such small scale discrepancies.
You need to be registered in advance and give your name and address when you vote and they match you against the list. It's a crime to impersonate someone so that deters people from trying it. A lot of people in the UK don't have any photo ID. 2 million out 62 million.
@@adrianthoroughgood1191 But getting someone's name and address is really easy...
It jus seems like it would be safer for everyone if the government issued IDs for every citizen.
@@realhawaii5o the previous government tried to introduce ID cards but the party that is now the government objected to that because people freaked out and thought the country would turn into na*i Germany with police checking people's ID all the time. Now that party is demanding we present ID to vote. It's all a bit silly. I would support introducing standardised ID cards as long as they are either free or cheap to the citizen. It would make a lot of things simpler if everyone had a card to prove who they were that would be accepted for everything. Our passports are very expensive at about £100 so people don't get one unless they actually travel abroad and people who do have one don't use it for other things in case they lost it.
@@realhawaii5o Are you that stupid ?? Genuine question. Do you actually think the Government should issue ID cards. Damn some people are so thick.
Only way tories can win.
That Keer Starmer. Get a new Labour leader with actual ideas and plans and they will win

@Andrew Harrington I mean I don't disagree with you... unfortunately Labour is the lesser of two evils. I think its clear the tories need to go though.
Trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist, voter fraud isn't an issue. A big issue is voter suppression and low voter turn out. Holding elections on weekdays (they should be on weekends), asking for ID etc will just reduce the amount of people involved in the democratic process which is worse for everyone.
Voter fraud is rampant in the UK.
Sadiq khans a mayor of london, i don’t think thats legit
What suppression? Being asked to identify yourself for an election? Im 25, ive been voting since i was 18. I rarely miss a voting chance and the only one i did, was when i was in France during Brexit and i hadnt realised the two dates clashed and didnt do a postal vote. I have never been suppressed, polling station is always local and always available.
Doesn’t exist? How do you know that? The system is so open and flawed.
I have a family member that gets details from other family members (of similar age) then goes to various voting booths and votes SNP with their details.
If you don’t think having the most secure voting system possible is a must there’s something wrong with you.
I’d go as far as to say you’re a disgruntled Labour supporter parroting decades of disproven lies about voter ID.
What voter suppression. You've been listening to too many leftie sites.
Couldn’t care less, won’t vote as all as corrupt as one another!
So let's get this straight, there a 2 million people without eligible IDs and single digit voter fraud convictions. In no words does that scream for the need for voter ID.
In addition, why do people have to register for these IDs? If the government is going to do a program like this, it better damn well make sure it's automatically issuing IDs to every eligible voter. There's no excuse not to other than for incumbent political parties to gain further influence over the election system.
In the Republic of Ireland, we have to bring photo ID when we vote in elections or referendums. I generally bring my passport when I head to the polling station. I still don’t see what the problem is here. 🤷🏻♂️
Many don't have passports and they cost around over £80 to get which many cannot afford in the cost of living crisis right now.
Nothing brits being brits, Always complaining No other problem
The problem is, we never used to have to produce ID. So why do we have to now? What's changed?
@@kiragoe Free photo ID can be applied for.
@@CriticalTheoryIsNonsense The deadline is 5pm on Tuesday 25 April for the 'Voter Authority Certificate.' 5 days to get the free voter ID to vote in the May ellections, most people have only just been told about it now on the news that you need ID and most won't hear about it until after the 25th.

Not much information being sent out on this to citizens
The more they talk the worse it gets
They need to change the rules on non uk nationals on voting. The fact that a person like me has been living in the uk since the age of 4 (now 38), attended all the schools, pay taxes and have a family and still cannot vote, is a joke.
Can I vote if I sing Happy Birthday twice and clap on the step?
I´m afraid not.
A late but most sensible move. Next we must remove the opportunity for voter harvesting by stopping voting by post except in cases of Government Service overseas. It is essential that individuals get to vote without pressure from community leaders or family member bullying.
We have this in Romania. The difference is that it's a national ID card that's mandatory and issued to everyone 14+ . If voter ID is to be enforced, this should be the way to implement it, to prevent people who are younger or poorer from not being able to vote by not having the proper ID.
Before my polling card was sent through the post i was sent a letter informing me i would need id to vote. Everyone who wants to vote but has no form of suitable id has had plenty of time to get their act together
Passports are over £80-£90 for those who don't have them alot of poorer people cannot afford to spend that much just to vote, especially in these times with the cost of living crisis. And many people don't drive. I know so many people who do not have a passport who can barely afford to pay for food and bills right now nethermind a buy a passport. Usually it's people who have never been abroad, I myself haven't been abroad outside the UK in over ten years.

As an adult, if you can’t even provide photo identification to vote then there’s something wrong with you.
No both side rig elections! Lower turnout favours the conservative party and mail ballots favour the labour party. It's a big game!
Since both parties attend the WEF conferences at Davos, I have to agree with you.
Everyone has either a pass port, driver license, college ID, 18 plus ID card etc
Easier to monitor how you vote!
Why report now? Why not all year?
Why haven’t ID been required decades ago. Give them free photo voter IDs.
because its o ne stage nearer state control
Not for those who are legitimate voters,
People can always do a postal vote that literally comes to your door that is actually the most lazy solution but you probably still need ID for that Most people do have ID
I still think we need some sort of online vote with bank level security
Canada is very different. In Canada everyone is issued a government ID in the form of a health card. There are also options for people without ID such as bank statements or prescription bottles. And as a last resort someone else who is registered can sign a legal declaration to vouch for your identity.
Why doesn't every citizen get a national ID? You can call it... National ID card....
Blair tried to do this and it backfired. We shouldn't need ID to vote.
We seem to have the same problem UK
LOL - nobody votes in the honest town of Chillingbourne. ⛔⛔⛔
i dont drive and not likely to travel. i have autism. so im not voting . thanks for the prejudice
Normalised over the long term I suppose it makes sense, however most of the young don’t engage with traditional media (which is more likely to report on the voter ID requirement) to the same extent as over 65s and don’t have the same amount of free time as over 65s due to work commitments. Therefore the likelihood younger voters are aware of the voter ID requirement is less than over 65s, which is likely to skew the vote in the Tory’s favour.
most over 65's have an acceptable form of Photo ID and im pretty sure, everyone got it in the post, every news paper and someone has talked about it.
people who have something to hide are one`s complaining.

Not that hard, facial recognition is everywhere nowadays. Requiring voter IDs, especially in this manner, is just a ploy to disadvantage certain groups. If they are gong to go through with the completely unnecessary step of requiring ID, the very least they could do is automatically mail an ID to all eligible voters.
@@giglioflex how can they do that when they don't have photos of people on file? The whole point of this (assuming good faith) is so that people can't pretend to be someone else at the voting booth.

In South Africa, with the largest inequality in the world, we require a photo ID to vote. If the rural people in the Transkai can have a photo ID to vote with, then there is no damn reason why it discriminates against anyone in a first world country.
Fine - but only if the government hands out *free* photo id for those who want it.
Nothing is free, it is paid for with taxes. Got a phone, smoke, drink then got enough money to get the ID.

A regular voter, I have lived in my ward for nearly 30 years and, for all elections, have attended a single polling station.

There's also those who don't have photo ID at all - no driver's licence, current Passport, bus pass etc.
Peoples names and addresses are going to be on the Register so if no photo ID then 3 forms of ID that correspond - bills, bank statement, medical card etc , should be sufficient.

I think there should be a backup mechanism where you have to take your polling card and sign a form promising that you are the person named and have your photo taken so that if you are committing fraud you can be prosecuted later. At the very least then we'd know how many people were really trying it, even if some of them got away with it.
Voting should be mandatory.
Aside that going against individual freedoms, it would be totally pointless, would simply end up with spoilt ballot papers.
@@samsara3694 Spoilt ballot papers is fine - there should even be a box to tick for "no vote" - but it should be mandatory to participate in the process; it is in many countries. This makes citizens get off their asses, even if the weather is bad or there's something good on the telly.

If you are not motivated enough to get an ID to vote then you shouldnt be voting. Not everyone needs to vote.
Could not think of anything more non productive than voting in a one party state!
It is not mandatory to have a passport, it is not mandatory to have a driving license.....but it is mandatory to register to vote. Therefore for those who cannot vote for lack of photo ID the offence of failing to register to vote would seem to be unlawful. There is a friction here which cries out for judicial review. This is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
You don't need ID to register to vote. Voting is not compulsory. So you can fulfill your duties without getting ID. Getting ID is easy and free. You get it from the same website where you register to vote. You just need a photo to upload. The only people this will affect are people who don't find out before the deadline on 25th or people who don't know how to use the internet. Staff at homeless shelters will help people to register if they don't have a smartphone of their own. Perhaps libraries will too, or they should if they don't.
@@adrianthoroughgood1191 do you work for conservative central office? Are you being deliberately obtuse or are you just thick?

Voting is optional. Photo ID is optional. These are facts. You are not forced to get one, but it's easy to get one if you want. Most countries have ID cards and require them to vote, whether they are at war or not. The government has all the info anyway. I think people are silly to object to ID cards. The would make a lot of things simpler. I just think they should be free.
You don’t need photo ID to vote in Canada. I live there you just need to be registered on the voter’s list via voting in a previous election, filing your income taxes or paying your property taxes. Otherwise you just need to bring 2 pieces of mail indicated on a list posted by Elections Canada from the past 12 months that clearly show your name and current address. Many Renters vote this way. No Photo ID required whatsoever.

You can get a free ID but you need to apply for it. They can't just post you one because how would they get your photo to put on it? They should have sent out leaflets to every house inviting people to apply. The voting card does tell you but most people probably don't read it.

Youd need something more secure (watermarks etc) like a passport. Which they dont have because theyre still on their parents passports ....if their parents have passports. poorest wont have a need for one. And probably wont be able to afford one (or a family full) given the current setup. They cost a ton.

Makes sense given every native canadian has a eligible ID due to universal healthcare. The problem is that not everyone in britian does, 2 million in fact. If they are going to require ID, they should be required to mail ID out to everyone. It's really overkill though, making everyone's life more of a hassle for 9 potential cases of fraud is pretty ridiculous.

There should definitely be a a free way to obtain photo id before this system is implemented. Furthermore it should not be compulsory to have id in order to vote for at least a couple of years after changing the system: there are already insufficient people voting in our elections and this is just another hurdle.
I mean there literally is
It would be outrageous to do his without free ID being available, but it is. They said in the video 47k people out of the 2M people without ID have got one. But I agree there needs to be a period of several years and at least 1 general election where there is a backup mechanism for someone who tries to vote but doesn't have ID. Eg taking their photo and at least proof of address and having them sign a form. To make it easier to prosecute them later if they were lying.
