Electoral fact of the day: turnout and postal voting

In June’s European elections, turnout amongst postal voters was 64% in Great Britain. Turnout amongst non-postal voters was 30% – a full 34 percentage points lower. There’s a lesson in there about campaigning… The figures for the different regions were: South East 68% (+34%) South West 68% (+33%) East Midlands 67% (+34%) Eastern 67% (+33%) West Midlands 66% (+35%) Scotland...

Ernest Bevan

Or was it Aneurin Bevin? Either way, there was apparently a Labour PPB this week. Yes, I also mananged to miss it. Did anyone, anyone at all, actually see it? Well, enough to notice that the makers did not know the difference between Bevin and Bevan. Seriously. Bevin refused to join the European Coal and Steel Community on the grounds that it was “the blueprint for a federal state” which...

Postal ballot claims rise by 9% in Halewood South, so far...

It is always interesting to see what happens in the back ground at election time. If you need any information it is always best to contact the election officer. Having seen irregularities in other wards in the past, such as Three Rivers and Barnsley I have tried to seek information especially concerning postal ballots. Previous requests to certain councils comes back with varied replies, some of which...

Social Democracy: A Force That Is Distrusted But Not Yet Spent

Ordinary people will only start voting for social democrats once more if they ditch the policies that are making their lives a misery. Social-democratic parties were the main losers of the 2009 European elections. Green parties may have done well in their traditional strongholds (France, Germany, Sweden, Luxembourg), but their scores remain marginal elsewhere. And almost [...]

Greek public finances: Arithmetic lesson

The politics of deficits and economic statistics GREEK government statistics are notoriously unreliable. But rarely can the numbers have seemed more erratic than in recent months, when the forecast for this year’s budget deficit more than doubled from 6% to 12.7% of GDP. What went wrong? Electoral politics is a big part of the answer. Tax collection “collapsed almost totally” after...

The Queen's Speech is no saving grace - but it kicks off a winnable debate

By Mathew Hulbert / @mathewhulbert The 2010 General Election campaign began, in essence if not literally, with a bang today. Everyone, it seems, has an opinion about the Queen's Speech, most of them negative. But regardless of the content of the Royal Address itself, the Commons debate that followed it between the main party leaders shows us what we can expect much, much more of over the next six...

Do the polls flatter Labour?

An ICM poll in The Guardian this morning gives the Conservatives a 13-point lead, roughly the same as the 14-point lead in our ComRes poll for The Independent on Sunday at the weekend, and another 14-point lead from YouGov in The Sunday Times . ICM actually shows a narrowing of the gap from 17 points last month, although The Guardian 's report emphasises evidence from other questions that David Cameron...

Griffin: Barking

Europe couldn't hold him for long, it seems. Nick Griffin, the BNP leader who recently told a Question Time audience he only backed the " non-violent wing " of the Klu Klax Klan, has announced his intention to stand as parliamentary candidate for Barking in next year's general election. An odd choice, perhaps, from a British Nationalist who no longer recognizes London as part of Britain....
