Political Parties and Elections Bill

Does that not completely misunderstand the nature of the debate that is going on in these communities? In the areas where these problems have arisen over ethnic minority, basically, vote-rigging, it dominates the local press. People everywhere say, "What are we going to do about it?". They do not say, "What is the nation going to do about it?"; they say, "What are we going to do about our problem in our area?". That is why I cannot understand the obsession with national rollout. Why do we not deal with it in individual areas?
