Labour at centre of new row over postal votes

With 11 days to go until the deadline to apply for a postal vote passes, a Guardian survey of more than 20 key marginal constituencies shows that postal voting is soaring in crucial seats with small majorities, with applications in some areas up more than 300% since the last election.

It is beginning to look like the integrity of the UK's voting system is about to come under sustained attack from the UK's main political parties. Given that the postal vote system is a recipe for abuse, this does not bode well for the accuracy/honesty of the upcoming election. Methinks that there may be a number of constituencies with rather unexpected results.
