Fears of record low turnout for first Police Commissioner elections |
This whole "election" should be declared null and void, the concept completely abandoned and consigned to the dustbin of history. The government, certain parts of the media and Mail readers would have hysterical fits of outrage if an industrial action decision was passed by a union or unions on such a low vote. (I can almost hear the screams of "Well that's different". In this country hypocrisy rules.)
