I think when you are collaborating and working with people from different ethnicities and backgrounds it is one of the best cracks you can have. In my last job we had white, sikh, hindu and muslims working together. There was loads of self deprecating humour going on (Muslim mate moaned about the lack of phone signal in caves when he got back from visiting family in Pakistan) for example. We'd play football after work, go the pub at lunch times. Pretty bang on.I worked at jaguar Land rover for 2 years .
The lads before me on the track were white and Indian, the lads behind me on the track were white and black .
All down the track people of every background quite literally getting on , having a laugh working together .
I now work at a place where it's a similar story (I won't name it as I don't know whose on here )
I just don't see this fractured society we are told about .
But we are told about it constantly by everybody else .
That's why it confuses so many people and annoys them .
I live on a street with people of different races and backgrounds ..
We borrow things off eachother , the Indian guy behind me jet washed my patio for nothing , the Somalian family by us , we took their daughter last week to Kenilworth Park , when it's hot we all chat in the gardens .
Many people just don't see it and that's why it's so confusing and hard for us to understand
The issue is that it prevents some people from voting and has been shown to disproportionally impact certain demographics. 3.5 million people in the UK don't any photo ID , if you require either a passport or driving license that increases to 11 million. These are often the poorer people in society so aren't going to be able to afford to obtain photo ID just so they can vote. Why should they be denied their democratic right?Bullshit, why’s it such a problem about proving you’re identity.....always making excuses
Bullshit, why’s it such a problem about proving you’re identity.....always making excuses
You'd have been all for Blair's ID cards scheme then.Bullshit, why’s it such a problem about proving you’re identity.....always making excuses
Basically Labour's only chance of winning is without it.....its a great idea as people actually have to prove who they areIn regards to the photo ID to vote
Are they free ? Isn't it similar already in northern Ireland ?
What other countries use this method ?
Is it successful?
As long as all legal residents have one why will it be a problem ?
Not too clued up on this kind of thing , haven't really read much about it at all
Got to notice how none of the Tories can tell you anything they want/expect, just “lol Labour suck and I’m not Labour”, it’s Brexit all over again. A whole swathe of people excited for something but they don’t know what it is so can’t be disappointed.
Politics as grift. Absolutely mental.

Think you should switch parties to avoid 20 years + of misery
If you're going to do it, may as well just do a full-on ID card.In regards to the photo ID to vote

But when Blair suggested that, the people now suggesting this were up in arms.
Hows not being against Voter ID childish lol, the majority of people don't have a problem with itThink you should learn the difference between sport and politics and not be such a credulous child but here we are.

I read somewhere that Johnson has previously voted against ID cards 12 times or something like that.If you're going to do it, may as well just do a full-on ID card.

Would people rather we had mandatory voting like Australia for example .
That's an interesting philosophical question really, and a bit deep for a Monday morningWould people rather we had mandatory voting like Australia for example .
What problem exactly are we trying to solve? Probably best to start there before picking a solution.
The problem we are trying to solve appears to be “not everyone elects a Tory”.
Go on then - chuck your voter ID idea into the Tory Facebook groups you frequent and see what happensHows not being against Voter ID childish lol, the majority of people don't have a problem with it
Or they'll just be disengaged with being ordered to vote, and will end up voting for the next Nigel-come-lately who promises an end to the election tyranny of the state.I was thinking along the lines of if everybody had to vote , maybe people would become more interested in politics and policies that effect them, over time ofcourse ... leading to people voting for their actual interests
I think if you make sure people have the ‘none of the above’ option to choose then you could try mandatory voting?I was thinking along the lines of if everybody had to vote , maybe people would become more interested in politics and policies that effect them, over time ofcourse ... leading people to vote for their actual interests

How does it work in Australia? They have it there don’t they? All I know is you get a free sausage when you vote, which I’m all for!
Now I'm in but... surely that's veganist?All I know is you get a free sausage when you vote, which I’m all for!
It’s a fine for not voting - but it’s only $20How does it work in Australia? They have it there don’t they? All I know is you get a free sausage when you vote, which I’m all for!

When is a sausage not a sausage...?Vegan sausages exist.
Against gods will, but they exist.
There really is a clip of Boris for anything
