Re: Home Office's dream of a State ID Card would be a reality

I like your confidence in the system, but it might be a little misplaced.

This fraud [1] happened in my city. Followed the case at the time and the biggest issue seemed to be finding the evidence to get a conviction because of the lack of traceability of votes cast. I think it would be a lot easier now with postal voting (and not just me [2]) and may have happened in the last election [3] in my area.
