If voting is going to change then it should be made compulsory! You can always spoil your ballot.
Neither of these are valid reasons.
The odds of that happening in this country are precisely bugger all.
You would think with organisation like that, they would know what sort of Brexit they were backing
Vote Leave and Leave.EU will boycott any second refernedum as will millions of leave voters.
Followed by a formal pact between Con and BXP to implement a No Deal Brexit without a refernedum after the next general election.
No A50 this time just straight forward repeal the 1972 European Communites act and we're done.

It will be a Tory landslide.
Bellicose ranting - spare me. We live in the greatest place on Earth apparently but you have to wait a month to get an appointment with a GP and the transport system can't deal with the capacity and, on a daily basis, causes stress and inconvenience to individuals and business.
That doesn't matter because as you hear your train is delayed or cancelled you can be assured you live in the greatest place on Earth.
You can even participate in democracy as long as bring your Government photo id. If I were a cynic I'd call this a Conservative plan to discourage potential non-Conservative voters though now the Tories are the Party of the working class Leaver (apparently), this might be a double edge sword.
She's a surefire winner based on that performance, get her in quick.
Reminds me of Blackadder the second!
Hardly a majority winning lead for Johnson on that evidence and we haven't even had the campaign.
How odd!

Sometimes though this sort of thing can backfire with unforeseen consequences.
I recall the 2015 election, when Cameron, Osborne and May insisted on bringing in an untried system of individual electoral registration that as they were well aware it would just happened to drastically reduce the proportion of eligible adults who were registered to vote. And conveniently it was those who tended to be younger or students or living in poor quality private rented accommodation or at transient addresses or ethnic minorities. The change helped the Conservatives win the 2015 election, as they expected.
They might still be in a job had they also realised that the same disenfranchised demographic would have generally supported Remain at the 2016 referendum.
Good luck trying to win their votes.

How can you get photo ID at short notice in an election period if you’ve recently moved house? Or is the address on the ID not going to matter? (if it does it creates an additional challenge for voters eg. Students registered in two places)

But I am puzzled as to why her background seems to be so difficult to penetrate. Most MPs are very happy to share what school they went to and very useful it is when doing careers presentations. But from her, not a dicky bird. Might she have been privately educated and covering it up?
