Edinburgh Council still in denial...
Election bosses have been urged to lobby the Government for a law change in the wake of the controversy over the tens of thousands of people who missed out on the chance to vote in the city’s road tolls poll.
I love the fact that the Council is blaming the congestion charging debacle on the voting law [which wouldn't give them access to the complete electoral register, hence disenfranchising a chunk of voters] rather than accepting that their plans were poorly thought out and resoundingly rejected by the ratepayers.
