Demand that Peterborough joins the Voter ID scheme immediately
Action the previously accepted plans to enrol on the Government pilot scheme to demand that all voters produce ID to vote in polling stations.
Why is this important?
This is just a small step towards restoring democracy and the public's faith in election integrity.
As highlighted in the government-commissioned report by Sir Eric Pickles, Peterborough is an area at high risk of electoral fraud.
Voter ID pilots have been announced as a success by the government. Peterborough should now honour its previous decision to join this scheme and councillors should vote to have voter ID introduced for the next election - local or parliamentary.
