@mattgrayyes that's brilliant! And so good to see young people registering in the data. I hope they go on to vote. @mattgrayyes although 14/15 year olds in Wales & Scotland can't vote in the General Election only in local elections. @mattgrayyes Young people make sure you register AND vote. @missingbrighton @mattgrayyes@chaos.social @mattgrayyes You can't vote if you're under 18, only register, but it's still something worth doing! > British citizens living abroad! This is true, but then your local council (Sunderland) will write to you and tell you that your vote will be sent from the UK “around” the 26th June, and that it has to be back by the 22:00 4th July or it doesn’t count. That’s 6 working days. For a non-express letter to get from the UK, to anywhere (Australia), and back. Good luck with that. @mattgrayyes @robb @johnnydecimal If you know someone still here that you can trust then a better option would be to appoint them as a proxy, they can even represent 4 overseas voters rather than the usual 2 domestic voters.
@mattgrayyes I don’t hecking know where my UK passport is, and I left England as a teenager (see I’ve even taken on the Canadianism of referring to the constituent countries!), otherwise I would consider it |
Once you’ve done that if you like graphs you might want to go here:

And see the graph of people registering over the last 24h, month quarter and year!
