Voting Rights Uk

Lonnie Said:

Should the government abolish the human rights act 1998 Vote UK?

We Answered:

Most definitely we should. The HRA is nothing more than a Charter for criminals, illegal immigrants, spongers and whingers. It is being used by the progressive far left, most of whom seem to be in the judiciary, as a battering ram to overturn the core values of this country. I for one am sick of hearing about people's human rights. What about human wrongs and personal responsibility? We are now ruled by unelected Eurocrats that we can't vote out, many of whom hate Britain. The EU is the most expensive club in the world for which we get very little benefit. If we channeled that money back into our own country we would be in a far batter state than we are now.

Martha Said:

Voting rights question?

We Answered:

As you have addresses in 2 parts of the UK, you can be on the electoral register in both places and vote in local elections in both places. It is, however, illegal to vote twice in an election for Parliament, so you have to choose which constituency you want to vote in and just not vote in the other one.

Bernard Said:

is there any reason why EU national would need UK passport in UK?

We Answered:

One of the reasons you will need it is for identity purposes. It is a photo document that shows who you are. You do not need to take out citizenship, and I see no benefit to you, although I don't know which country you are from. As a British passport holder who needed assistance abroad I can tell you it's worth nothing, you may as well hold a passport from Africa. As an EU citizen in U.K. you can vote in local elections but not state elections. Keep your own passport and be proud of it.

Gregory Said:

How does voting in the UK work?

We Answered:

It just isn't counted. Nobody gets it.

Ben Said:

UK law on people with criminal records voting?

We Answered:

When they get out, they can vote again just like any other free citizen. They have "paid the price" for their crime, and are equal with other people.
