hedda	3.5m who haven't lived in the UK for more than 15 yrs or paid taxes can now vote in UK elections. I can vote in a UK election. Tories think most will vote for them. Issues in your town could be decided by someone who does not live there 8 million of the poorest are not on the electoral register. Govt not bothered. # I love Australia's compulsory (gets a 90% turn out of voters) preferential, proportional representation system that ends in majority chosen governments either left or right. Plus only 3 years between elections keeps them on their toes. UK's FPP is an anethema.
