Voting Scandals in the British Banana Republic

In any democracy you have a right to vote. You do not vote on every issue or every day. Perhaps once every four or five years you get to vote on a new Government. The right to vote is one of the most important rights. In democracies we claim that the right to vote ought to be given to all people in the world. In the United Kingdom we have sent soldiers to die in recent times in Iraq and Afghanistan in order to give this precious right to the people there. Or so the politicians claim.
