No but my point is that was one counter who made what the supervisor said was an "honest mistake", is every counter watched?

the fact that its public knowledge proves that the process is transparent.

On the EU vote, one also needs to be aware that there are establishment figures on both sides of the vote with equal power and influence. Voting is usually rigged by coercing the voters at the polling stations. That just doesn't happen in this country

It was interesting though that the counter made the mistake of adding to Tony Blairs pile in the 3 instances that he was caught given there were maybe 10 candidates, I think all processes are open to abuse no matter how transparent, In this case the counter himself was most likely biased rather than anything more sinister
