If that was the case why did they not authorise the voting beyond 15 years absence to be taken down? You can never believe a Tory!

Possibly because to change the voting rules it has to go through due process? It was this government that said it would ammend this 15 year rule!

I can only speak from personal experience and others might be different but after using the link I was contacted by the local council where I last voted.They asked my address where I lived when I cast my vote,now even though they have the information on record,they will not register you unless you can give them all the information they request.So if you can't remember the flat number of somewhere you rented 14 years ago you are in effect disenfranchised.Democracy at work eh!

It is so important to ensure you are registered to vote for the Brexit referendum. Expats in the EU have very little to gain from an exit and a lot at risk . This is the website to register to vote: https://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote
