It's against the law, allows advantages and is electoral fraud.
If it wasn't against the law it would create an uneven playing field

Protect a majority that came with the help of a bit of electoral fraud do you mean?

People will still vote for em anyway, even if they have been cheating. British are funny like that.

On the contrary. Your point is unimportant because the Tories will probably win all those seats in an election or by election plus more on top on June 8th.

Constituents happy or members happy ? Not the same thing. We both know that there is a campaign encouraged by Momentum among others, to deselect "Blairytes" "Tory Lite" "Traitors"..............

There will be some mainstream MP casualties along the way.

if there are quite a few deselections then the lack of time will certainly be a problem for any prospective candidate.

Re your point about prosecution, that could be quite a fly in the ointment but it seems to me, parties aren't making too much of an issue of it due to their own sensitive position.

Surely you want a a General Election. You keep on about how we are living in a country where people are starving. You must be convinced that the electorate will vote heavily in favour of Mr Corbyn who will abolish all hunger and inequality at a stroke. As for electoral fraud, it will take a lot to beat the postal vote rigging that went on in favour of Labour at the last General Election.

We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

Seems not. All part of the current cps investigation. But you are ignoring the argument as to whether the snap GE is linked to possible imminent charges against the conservatives and rerun of by elections due to fraud or not.
What do you think?
