  I take it, Martin that a URN is a Unique Reference Number?
  I doubt whether such a thing would hold back those who attempt to fiddle with the outcome by 'helping' old folk with their postal voting.
  I was hoping that voting online might lead to a more open and inclusive system, at a local level to begin with and go on to replace that rather dodgy notion of petitioning.
  
  Divide and rule...again. With Paul reminding us of the horrors of encouraging 'them' to vote. So...while I contend that it is the politicos and their Westminster Village who are content to vie for that one vote, that one seat that gives them the edge. They, this time in the form of PaulB, wish we voters to contend with one another about what sort of person should be encouraged/allowed/discouraged to vote.
  
  If we are not to make voting compulsory why not make the eligibility of receiving pension/any & all benefit/driving license/Library card etc. dependent on being registered to vote and voting?
  
  Whether voting is hard or easy can we not begin by making it worthwhile?
