Dog Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Did you hear that the BNP are placing their own seals on the ballot boxes. It does stink that the boxes will remain 'unopened' until the following day for the count as the poor dears don't like working late any more.

Surely this won't be allowed, it would be tampering with the ballot box's and therefore illegal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoddy Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Apparently there is an old rule which says that political parties can put their own seals on boxes and the BNP intend to use it. They are not the only ones against the 'next day' count, even the Speaker of the House of Commons has spoken against it.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardengirl Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I did read that some politician or other had quoted that date in a paper or speech. Can they really hold out that long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoddy Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 You're right, KathyF. That was one of the Speaker's objections.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
