Lib Dems urge the Government to act on Voter ID Scheme
EMBARGO: Immediate Release
Commenting on the Voter ID Urgent Question after an Electoral Commission report showed that voter ID disproportionately impacts marginalised groups, Liberal Democrat Chief Whip Wendy Chamberlain MP said:
“This is just another example of the Government burying its head in the sand while all the evidence suggests a potential calamity at next year's General Election.
“The Conservatives' botched Voter ID scheme was always going to be a disaster. It's vital that they listen to the warnings and urgently act to ensure that people across the country are not denied their fundamental democratic right to vote”
