Um, mostly non Tories then?
Everyone pays tax on food etc.
People who have worked and aren't working now, have paid tax!
Does he mean pensioners too?
The bloke's delusional!

It's got to be against the Human Rights Act surely?
Wasn't there a fuss about prisoners voting, how did that turn out?

IBS should get a life. Yes I can pay my bills-but I also know many too ill to work Just because they can walk ten yards and do not need help to shit does not mean they are fit for work. Or to vote-sorry I am getting angry-most unlike me

Hi

A very good idea, whilst we are at it, why not remove all women, all men who do not own at least twenty acres of land or who do not have an off shore bank account arranged by their Tax Accounts?

It would be hilarious if it was not so dangerous.

The man is an out of touch incompetent fool, unfortunately he is not alone in that and they are the people running the Country.

His letter to the Prime Minister went on to suggest that withdrawing the right to vote in this way, would provide a “much needed incentive for the workshy, ill and disabled to find work”, and for those in work to stay “in work and off benefits”. The letter also questioned whether those under the age of 25, who tend to be “more prone to idealism”, ought to be permitted to vote, albeit with a possible exception “for members of the Young Conservatives.”
Next on his list - women voters .....

It's just a sneaky way of taking labour voters of the Electoral Roll .... Good idea !

Sounds to me like the snake salesmen trying to divert attention away from the fact the tories are getting a lot of stick at the moment. ploy they use on a regular basis.
