Default Steve McCabe MP , Labour, Selly Oak says we should offer a 5% discount tax,to vote

Council Tax, 5% discount if you vote.

In his area, it is 1 in 6 that does vote


This is a Great idea.

He was featured on BBC1HD Politics England 10AM
"Midlands"

No
With so much apathy
moves like this Council tax discount
would work.


It was High Turn Out from the Brexit Vote
And the 2019 Dec General Election to complete it.

it would be better to give a £20 voucher for Aldi

that way people could buy a box of wine (2.25 litres) and 4 cans of lager plus a tin of soup and a loaf

Yes £20 voucher
to a local store
once you vote,
would be a mega improvement
and get more locals to vote.



A Mother could get a week's shopping with that
