VOTERS IN BRITAIN: Please be aware that today is the last day (deadline at 5pm) to apply for Voter ID if you don't already have a form of valid ID.
And please make sure that you do have a form of valid ID. Actually, I'm sure that all of you for whom this is relevant do indeed have valid ID already. So please check that your friends and relatives do too! Especially those who aren't particularly engaged in politics.
When you do follow politics closely, it's easy to forget that there are a lot of people out there for whom this is a big surprise. Help them to make sure they have valid ID if you can, help them to check not assume.
It's primarily the photo on the ID that they are interested in. My driving licence had expired when I last voted but they accepted it because the photo was still a likeness.
Having said that I now have a voter ID certificate with a new photo.
