Re: Voting in the UK Election - Advice from High Commissioner
The Leicester Registration dept at LCC, do not recommend postal voting. They say that once nominations for candidates closes they have a short time to prepare & print the voting papers. They must then stuff envelopes to send overseas. By the time the Cy postal service puts the envelope in your box it leaves too short a time for sending back. Use Proxy voting as the only sure way to make your vote count.
