I’m sorry guys but I don’t think I can vote today. I just don’t have it in me to fly to Britain, get citizenship and then vote. Maybe next time. I’m really sorry.
Babe, wake up. Polls are open

All I hear are excuses

If you’re a Canadian citizen, you can skip the “get citizenship” part. So maybe you can afford to reconsider in light of this new info?

Unfortunately the Canadian government discriminates against me because I was born in the Midwest and have never been to Canada.

Polling stations are open until 10pm. Don’t forget to bring photo ID. Happy voting!

That doesn’t narrow it down much…

Our polling station is between the chippy and the offy - so vote, grub & bottle of booze to shout at the telly with!

Sounds like my sort of evening!

Postal voting ftw

Only if you actually receive your pack which reports suggest hasn’t been as reliable this time around.

I’ve done it for years since they changed my polling station without me realising and it was a scramble to make it to the other one on time.
Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 year ago
Were you waiting until 10pm to vote? 🤣

I do love how Rishi “Green Card” Sunak scheduled the election for American Independence Day. What are the odds that he uses his new* independence to move to California before the month’s out?

Good luck, everyone. Rise the tide and lift all the boats.

I live in the only longstanding Labour constituency in Scotland; their only competition is the SNP. I’m a member of another party but the constitutional question basically overrides everything… kind of annoying to be bounced into voting for a specific party but I guess the longstanding MP has been doing a good job in my opinion.

Done.
I wonder if the country can get the day off tomorrow to celebrate?
rah@feddit.uk 1 year ago
No.

I will keep this in mind next time I see you complaining about politics

Replace “America” with “Britain”, 100% the same.

Wish poll days were bank holidays, gotta dodge politics at work all day thank god for the unifying presence that is Count Binface
GreatAlbatross@feddit.uk 1 year ago
It’s easy to dodge the politics at work on election day.
“Where were you between 10am and 5pm?” ‘Voting. Big queue. burp’
joneskind@lemmy.world 1 year ago
As a French I only learned recently from a Londoner coworker how you call your national days off.
“Bank holidays”
Why?
Anyway, good luck from the bottom of my heart.
sirico@feddit.uk 1 year ago
As the name would imply, the banks had to legally close. It took over pretty much every singular holiday like may day for example
TheBat@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Same in India. Wonder where we got it from…
Bank holidays are when banks are closed for business.
There are other holidays when schools or some other establishments might be closed but banks are open.
