@GeofCox @simon_brooke every time someone seems surprised at the low turnout without mentioning the voter suppression law the Tories passed specifically to lower the turnout, I wonder if I'm missing something.
@GeofCox @petealexharris @simon_brooke If you wanted to increase turnout, you’d make it as easy as possible to vote. Enable voting in any polling station. The polling cards they send out could double as voting slips - just fill in your cross and drop it in. At the count you’d have a separate area for ‘outside’ votes which would then be communicated to the appropriate constituency. There wouldn’t be that many in most areas.

In many countries, voting is legally obligatory - Australia and Luxembourg are two that I am certain of, but I'm sure there are a number of others!
