Make voter ID compulsory in all UK elections
Rejected

What the petition asks
It is farcical that we're not required to provide ID in order to vote in UK elections.
Immediate measures, such as providing ID at polling stations, & Post Offices when dropping off postal votes, should be implemented in any future UK elections.
