Elections Bill

Proceeding contribution from Alex Sobel (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 September 2021. It occurred during Debate on bills on Elections Bill.

A pensioner can bring their bus pass as identification, but the Bill disproportionately disadvantages young people who cannot bring their student card or university or college identification. Will those young people not be disproportionately affected, and should we not expand the range of identification that is recognised by the Bill, as a minimum?
