Only works if you get the forms in time to get them back in time for the election!

Don't know about France but from what I'm hearing here I reckon up to 25% fell into that category. Both myself and 'er indoors fell foul of It, I got my form but too late to get it back and she never got hers at all.

I think most folk around here realise that both countries' postal systems are up the Swannee and organise proxy votes. Mind you, I was a bit taken aback when my proxy proudly declared that he'd voted 'Monster Raving Loony Party' on my behalf :lol:

There was a six week time frame - the issue is not the post - it is the poor local councils who failed to get ballots out (or like mine who franked it with a UK barcode)
