Under the cover of beating in-person voter fraud, a problem that simply just does not exist, the Tories have introduced a requirement for ID to vote. This will disenfranchise a lot of poor and marginalised people.
If you do not have one of the following:
- UK or EEA Photocard driving licence
- UK, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, a Commonwealth, British Overseas Territory or EEA Passport (valid or expired)
- UK Proof of Age Standards Scheme (PASS) card
- UK biometric residence permit
- UK Defence identity card (MOD Form 90)
- Northern Ireland Electoral Identity Card
- National ID from an EEA country
- Blue Badge
- Government travel pass for older or disabled people Including Freedom pass, or disabled person’s concessionary pass
- Scottish National Entitlement Card
Then you will need to acquire one or apply for a Voter Authority Certificate.
You need:
- your registered voting address,
- a recent, digital photo,
- your National Insurance number
Applying takes around 5 minutes, or 20 minutes if you cannot provide a National Insurance number.
There is a paper form.
There is a different process for anonymous electors.
The Electoral Commission has more information about Voted ID. There is also a briefing from the House of Commons library.
