apparently, the Queen of Great Britain is racist, too, because, according to the Guardian, she’s about to announce tomorrow that photo ID will be required to vote in general elections in order to tackle fraud. Now, the Queen is announcing it, but it’s part of a broader election reform effort and laws that will be passed in their next parliamentary session. Voter IDs would be available through local councils, but people would have to apply for them with some time before polls open. The changes would affect UK-wide and English elections. Voters in Northern Ireland already have to show identification in order to vote.

According to the Guardian, in addition to the requirement about photo ID, their election reforms are putting a limit on the number of postal votes that can be handed in on behalf of others. Translation: they don’t like ballot harvesting any more than we Republicans do.
