Election fraud: Politically correct sentiment a problem, report says

Politically correct sensibilities have led the authorities to turn a blind eye to electoral corruption in the UK, a report on the issue has suggested.

In Sir Eric's report, which took 12 months to complete, he argues that "politically correct sensibilities" meant a blind eye was too often turned to voting irregularities in Pakistani or Bangladeshi communities in particular.

Sir Eric's report said he had seen evidence of "pressure being put on vulnerable members of some ethnic minority communities, particularly women and young people, to vote according to the will of the elders, especially in communities of Pakistani and Bangladeshi background.

Election fraud: Politically correct sentiment a problem, report says

This review undertaken by Eric Pickles was commissioned following exposure of fraudulent activities in the 2015 mayoral elections in Tower Hamlets, London. The guilty party was a Bangladeshi-born Briton, Lutfur Rahman.

Just like the horrendous scandals of local authorities and the police ignoring sex abuse in predominantly Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities, which have been widely reported and many men have been convicted. The background behind these was a fear of the authorities and the police to act against minorities lest they be accused of racism, or "cultural insensitivity", or some other pathetic excuse for inaction.

Now we have a report showing these same groups are active in electoral fraud, mainly the control of the "community vote". These communities have such a long way to go before they can demonstrate proper co-existence within a liberal democracy, that is the UK. It's a real worry that once again it is women who are the victims through male control.

1. If this happens in the UK, then just imagine the levels of fraud in Bangladesh and Pakistan.
2. Are all elections where these groups predominate now suspect?
3. Will the authorities wake up, stop fannying about with political correctness, and act?
4. Why the hell was Lutfur Rahman not prosecuted after being found guilty of electoral fraud?

I'll link to the actual report when published online.

This is a very important issue for Brits and hopefully we will stop this ridiculous practise and move it aside for the truth instead of excuses when corruption is exposed which often conceals far greater and ongoing crimes.

As Brits we are a fair-minded and kind people - one only has to see the amount of help we give abroad when a catastrophe hits drawn from the public alongside the more than generous foreign aid programme this country is proud of.

However its time to stop PC and replace it with truth and fairness. As a country we can't have one group getting away with unacceptable behaviour to the majority's sensitivities and operate two different legal systems. It will fragment our country into become mini states many of which only the bullies and corrupt will run.

I will do you one better.

liberals have a long way to go before they are ready for democracy.

Seriously, how much of what Liberals do, have the backing of the majority?

Here is the report. Read it an weep.

Securing the ballot

There are 50 recommendations. Some common sense and some quite substantial. Let's see what happens shall we... Four recommendations from the Report to illustrate.


R4. The use of English (and Welsh, where appropriate) in polling stations should be required at all times, including any assistance given to electors by electoral staff.



R8. The Government should consider the options for electors to have to produce personal identification before voting at polling stations. There is no need to be over elaborate; measures should enhance public confidence and be proportional. A driving licence, passport or utility bills would not seem unreasonable to establish identity. The Government may wish to pilot different methods. But the present system is unsatisfactory; perfection must not get in the way of a practical solution.



R13. The Government should take action to address the clear vulnerability to the registration system as a result of the lack of systematic checks on nationality.



R41. The offence of undue influence should retain a reference to spiritual / religious influence.

Lets hope investigation is done into Councils aswell because I'm pretty sure many from those areas have been lifted up the housing ladder for the last 20 years as there should of been no way for them to take this many Houses & Apartments in such a short time... which they have if you care to look around..

This is just like UK police allowing muslim prostitution amd child rape to go on for fear of offending the savage muslims.

There is no place in civilized society for these lying, raping, cheating, murdering muslim savages.

Quite honestly; it may not be ethical, but it is not fraud. The people voted. They may have been manipulated, but they were not forced to vote in any particular way. Thus it was still their vote. Voter Fraud would have been the elders going in and casting the vote for everyone. This has been done in America since the late 1800s. My grandfather to this day only votes straight Democratic ticket (no matter whom is running) because for 35 years the Local Union told him he needed to.

It is not right, but it is not fraud either.
