People living in the Greater Manchester constituency of Makerfield will shortly head to the polls to elect their new MP.
More than 30 polling stations across the parliamentary constituency will open at 07:00 BST and close at 22:00, after which the count will take place. The result is expected early on Friday.
There are 14 candidates standing in the by-election, which was triggered by the resignation of Labour MP Josh Simons.
It is one of three Westminster by-elections taking place, with voters in the Scottish constituencies of Arbroath and Broughty Ferry and Aberdeen South also heading to the polls after their MPs stood down to take up posts as MSPs following May's Holyrood elections.
Voters have been reminded to bring a valid form of identification with them.
A passport, driving licence, bus pass, blue badge and a voter authority certificate are all accepted.
Photo IDs that are out of date can still be used if the image still looks like you.
Photocopies are not permitted.

Yes you cannot stop people being frogmarched to the polling station or intimated like the Nazi’s did
I guess if they want to cheat they will find a way regardless.
But generally I’d say apart from “chain voting” which certain communities do i.e busing in family members, etc. (this is also illegal) the UK elections run smoothly
Meanwhile...

The United Kingdom is going to announce additional restrictions in July on VPN usage. This is ON TOP OF the social media restrictions and mandated online identity verifications.
It’s over, UK. You sold out your own society. Absolute tragedy. Very sad.

With the huge number of migrants in the country, especially in the major metros, family voting is now a major issue in the UK.
It is in certain districts

Rupert Lowe just turned up outside Labour HQ in Makerfield, only up the road from Reform UK’s HQ.
The press immediately swarmed him.
One undecided voter had a chat with him in front of the cameras and was swayed.
Vote Restore Britain. 🇬🇧
